context_page_description: Muhieddine Abdul Razzak Itani, also known as Tabello, was a Lebanese professional footballer who played as a full-back.
  In the early 1950s, Itani began his senior club career at Nejmeh, helping them gain promotion to the Lebanese Premier League. In 1959 he moved to Racing Beirut, winning the league in 1964–65, before playing for Tadamon Beirut. He then returned to Nejmeh, where he was the Lebanese Premier League top goalscorer in 1968–69. Itani also played for Lebanon at international level, representing them in the Arab Nations Cup in the 1960s.
  Itani was known for his technique and agility, as well as for controlling the ball in unconventional ways. He was an ambidextrous offensive full-back, capable of playing on both flanks. Despite being only 1.61 m tall, Itani was able to reach high balls thanks to his high jumping. Itani was also known for his off-field antics, playing practical jokes especially on trips abroad with his teams.
