Muhammad Adil Iqbal (}}; born 9 July 1992) is a Pakistani professional footballer who plays as a left winger. He last played for Pakistan Premier League club Lyallpur.

Adil first came to prominence with Pak Elektron – signing a professional contract with the club at the age of 18 – scoring six goals in 25 appearances in his first season. The following season he signed for departmental side Khan Research Laboratories, where he went on to win three Pakistan Premier League titles, two Challenge Cup titles and finishing runners-up in the 2013 AFC President's Cup. Three years later, Adil's signature was pursued by a leading Kyrgyzstani club, and after protracted transfer negotiations he joined Dordoi Bishkek in 2014. Adil played a major role in helping the team win a treble; the league title, league cup and super cup, scoring four goals and making six assists in the league. After being linked to a club of Eerste Divisie in Netherlands, Derby County, and Pembroke Athleta, after refusing to further extend his contract with Dordoi Bishkek, Adil returned to Khan Research Laboratories, winning the 2016 Pakistan Football Federation Cup. In 2017, Adil signed for Australian club Hawkesbury City in a short-term deal, until returning to his former club. In 2021, Adil had a brief stint at Defenders FC in the Sri Lanka Super League until joining Lyallpur in 2021.

Adil received his first senior international cap in a 2–1 defeat against Palestine. With the under-23 team, Adil also represented Pakistan in the Asian Games and South Asian Games.
