Osman Bukari (born 13 December 1998) is a Ghanaian professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Serbian SuperLiga club Red Star Belgrade and the Ghana national team.

He was granted citizenship by the Serbian government in June 2023.

In the 2019–20 season, he was officially Trenčin's best player and was inducted in the league's best XI.

2020

After his eye-catching performances in Slovakia, Belgian side KAA Gent signed Bukari on 4 September 2020.

After signing a three-year contract with Gent, Bukari quickly established himself as one of the first-team regulars.

He played in the UEFA Europa League as Gent faced Hoffenheim, Red Star Belgrade and Slovan Liberec in the group stage.

He scored four goals and made six assists in 35 appearances for Gent.

On 12 August 2021, French Ligue 1 outfit FC Nantes signed Bukari on a season-long loan.

The Ghanaian was a part of the team that won Coupe de France, the fourth in club's history, and secured European qualification after a 21-year-long wait.

Serbian champions Red Star Belgrade signed Bukari on 21 June 2022 in a deal worth €3 million.

Bukari made his Ghana bow on 25 March 2021 against South Africa in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match.

Good performances on the club level for FC Nantes and Red Star Belgrade earned him a Black Stars recall and he's been a regular for the national team since March 2022.

He scored his first goal for his country on 1 June 2022 in an AFCON qualifier against Madagascar.

Bukari has been called up by national coach Otto Addo to represent the Black Stars in the 2022 World Cup.
