Hussein Mumin (Greek: Μουμίν Χουσείν, Turkish: Hüseyin Mümin, born 24 March 1987 in Passos-Rhodope, Greece) is a professional football midfielder currently playing for Panetolikos. He is the first Turk to play for the Greek national team. A Turk from Western Thrace has become the first from his region of Greece to wear the uniform of the national Greek football team. Hüseyin played 6 February 2007 in the match between Greek and Albanian junior national teams, wearing the Greek national uniform and becoming the first Turk to do so in the process. When asked by reporters to comment on how it was being a Turkish Muslim player on a Greek national team, Hüseyin said this: "In football, there is only one religion: the ball itself."
