Turki bin Abdul Mohsen Al-Sheikh (Arabic: تركي بن عبد المحسن بن عبد اللطيف آل الشيخ; born August 4, 1981) is a Saudi government official, also known as Turki Alalshikh. He is chairman of the General Entertainment Authority (GEA), a Saudi government department, and an adviser at the Royal Court under the rank of Minister. He is a co-founder of Zuffa Boxing, was the owner of Egyptian football club Pyramids from 2018 to 2019, and the owner of Spanish club Almería from 2019 to 2025.

Alalshikh has been described as a "key on-the-ground operator" in Saudi ruler Mohammed bin Salman's rise to power, helping him purge competing Saudi political elites. He has detained people for posting critiques of him on social media; those detained are reportedly in an area of al-Ha'ir prison which detainees call the "Tutu Wing", referencing a nickname of Alalshikh.

Alalshikh's actions for the Saudi government are seen by human rights groups as part of a broader effort to launder the Saudi government's reputation. According to Human Rights Watch, these activities are intended "to deflect attention from its brutal repression of free speech and other pervasive human rights violations."
