Al-Nassr Football Club (Arabic: نادي النصر), commonly known as Al-Nassr (lit. 'The Victory') or simply Nassr, is a Saudi Arabian professional sports club based in Riyadh. It is best known for its association football team which competes in the Saudi Pro League, the top tier of the Saudi football league system.
Founded in 1955 as one of the founding members of the Saudi Pro League, the club has traditionally worn a yellow and blue home kit. The name "Al-Nassr" translates to "The Victory" in Arabic. Al-Nassr play their home matches in the 25,000-capacity Al-Awwal Park, having previously played in the King Fahd International Stadium. Until 2020, Al-Nassr was operated by club members, but is now majority-owned by the Public Investment Fund. One of the few Saudi clubs never relegated from the top division, Al-Nassr has large support in the Middle East and has a growing international fanbase. In 2024, Al-Nassr was estimated to be worth around $1 billion, making it one of the most valuable football clubs in Asia. The club's anthem is "Yalla Nassr" and its mascot is "Knight", symbolizing the historic knights of Najd.
Al-Nassr is one of the most successful clubs in Saudi football: the club have won a total of 29 competitive trophies, including 10 league titles, 5 King Cups, and 3 Crown Prince Cups. Al-Nassr has won 2 continental trophies: 1 Asian Cup Winners' Cups and 1 Asian Super Cup. Al-Nassr became a dominant force in Saudi football in the 1990s and 2000s, securing multiple league and continental titles and its profile rose in the early 2020s after signing major international players, including Cristiano Ronaldo. Al-Nassr has deep rivalries with other clubs, with the most notable being the Riyadh derby against Al-Hilal.
