Manuel Zehnder is a Swiss handball player who plays for SC Magdeburg and the Switzerland national team.

Zehnder can play left back or centre back, and is known for his goal-scoring ability. Playing a minor role for HC Erlangen in the 2022–23 Handball-Bundesliga, he joined newly promoted Eisenach on loan for the 2023-24 season. This was a successful move, as he is currently the top goalscorer in the division.[1] He represented his country at the 2024 European Men's Handball Championship.[2]
