Nizar Khanfir is a Tunisian football manager.

Managing CS Hammam-Lif, he went on to work for the national federation as manager of Tunisia U23 and Tunisia Olympic.[1] In December 2015 he was hired as manager of Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle 1 club Stade Gabèsien.[2] On 19 February 2016, a crowd of displeased Stade Gabèsien fans gathered at the training ground and interrupted the session. Khanfir subsequently left the club.[3] He instead joined Rwandan club APR F.C. ahead of their 2016 CAF Champions League qualifying game against Yanga.[4] Following a longer stint at Qatari team Al-Sailiya SC,[1] he was hired as director of sports at CS Sfaxien in March 2021.[5]
