Al-Kholood Club () is a Saudi Arabian professional football club based in Ar Rass, that competes in the Saudi Pro League, the top tier of the Saudi football league system.
History
The club was founded in 1970 and spent much of its history competing in the Saudi Second Division League and the Saudi Third Division. In 2024, Al-Kholood secured promotion to the Saudi Pro League for the first time, qualifying for the 2024–25 season.
On 24 July 2025, the club was acquired by businessman Ben Harburg, becoming the first Saudi football club to be fully foreign-owned. Later that year, Al-Kholood recorded their first home victory under Harburg's ownership with a 2–1 win over Damac in the 2025–26 Saudi Pro League on 18 September 2025.
During the 2025–26 King's Cup, Al-Kholood reached the final of the King Cup for the first time. The club finished as runners-up after a 2–1 defeat to Al-Hilal.
