Silahdar Yusuf Pasha (Turkish: Silahdar Yusuf Paşa, Arabic: يوسف باشا; c. 1604–1646) also known as Jusuf Mašković, was an Ottoman vezir and admiral (Kapudan Pasha, grand admiral of the Ottoman fleet), known for conquering Chania in western Crete in only 54 days in 1645 during the Cretan War (1645–69).
Brusoni said that Yusuf eventually came into good relations with the Beys, who even claimed him as a relative and near friend ("Durachbeg, che si dice suo parente" "Il Sapitan bie Bessiraghch, suo amico").
Though he was a sharp and intelligent boy, he was in serious poverty; once an elder lady of Nadin saw him barefooted and gave him opanci (leather shoes).
While following his master on a trip, he got to know a gatekeeper of the Porte, and decided to join Ottoman service in Constantinople.
However, one year later in 1646, he was executed by the Sultan at the persuasion of Yusuf Pasha's political rivals.
