The Lebanon national under-23 football team (Arabic: منتخب لبنان تحت 23 سنة لكرة القدم), also known as the Lebanon Olympic football team (Arabic: منتخب لبنان الأولمبي لكرة القدم), represents Lebanon in international football competitions in the Olympic Games, the Asian Games, and the AFC U-23 Asian Cup, as well as any other under-23 international football tournament. The team also serves as the national under-22 football team of Lebanon.

The selection is limited to players under the age of 23, except for the Olympics which allows the men's team up to three overage players. The team is controlled by the Lebanon Football Association. The side has never qualified for the Olympic Games nor the AFC U-23 Asian Cup. They have only participated once in the Asian Games, in 2002, in which they were eliminated in the group stage.[1]
