Adnan Khamees Al-Talyani (Arabic: عدنان الطلياني) (born 30 October 1964) is a football player from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). He started playing football in the 1970s in the streets of the United Arab Emirates, and lived out his childhood in Sharjah. He then joined Al Shaab Club in 1980, and played there until 1999. He officially retired from Football in January 2003. A testimonial match was played on his honour between Italian champions Juventus and a team of famous players from all around the world.
Upon the selection of Heshmat Mohajerani (the former trainer of the Iran national team) as the trainer of the U.A.E. national team, Adnan was selected for that team.
Notably, he retired from international football in 1997 as the all-time leader in international appearances, with 164 and 53 goals. As of January 2006, he is still tied for fourth on the all-time list for men. In January 1999, U.S. women's star Kristine Lilly surpassed his total with her 165th cap, and has added 137 more (as of January 23, 2006) in an international career that still continues.
