David Revivo (Hebrew: דוד רביבו‎; born 5 December 1977) is an Israeli footballer who last played for Maccabi Yavne.

The younger brother of Haim Revivo, he too was recognized early in his youth for having a great footballing potential and joined the youth system of Maccabi Tel Aviv. Later he transferred to his hometown of Ashdod. After six seasons in Ashdod, Revivo finished his contract and went on trial at Los Angeles Galaxy in the American Major League. According to media reports in Israel, Revivo impressed manager Steve Sampson but was not offered a contract because Sampson was sacked shortly after Revivo had returned to Israel. Subsequently, Revivo signed a new deal with Ashdod.^[1]

He is the second-greatest goal-assist provider in Israel's history with 104 assists in the Israeli Premier League.^[2]
