Khalid Salman Al-Muhannadi (Arabic: خالد محمد سلمان المحري المهندي; born 5 April 1962) is a Qatari former footballer who represented the national team at the 1981 FIFA World Youth Championship, and multiple Gulf Cup tournaments, as well as the 1984 Summer Olympics. He is regarded as part of Qatar’s “golden generation” of the 1980s and 1990s, alongside Mansour Muftah, Ibrahim Khalfan, Mahmoud Soufi, Adel Khamis, and others. Among his most notable performances was his hat-trick against Brazil at the 1981 FIFA World Youth Championship and also his display against France at the 1984 Olympics. He retired from international football in September 1998, featuring in a farewell match against Sudan under coach Luiz Gonzaga, which ended in a 1–1 draw.
