Rudolf "Ruedi" Zahner (born 7 February 1957 in Aarau) is a Swiss former footballer who played as a defender during the 1970s, 1980's.
Zahner began playing professionally in 1976 with his local club, FC Aarau. In 1982, he made the step up to FC Zürich but failed to cut it and left for FC Zug after just one season. He returned to FC Aarau in 1984 and played there for another three years before moving on to FC Basel and retiring in 1988.
After his retirement from playing, he coached the Swiss under-17s team from 1991 until 1999. In 2006, he became the assistant manager of FC Aarau and was eventually appointed manager in 2007. He lasted only a short while in charge, however.
