History
In 1927 a group of young men from Jeddah decided to hold a meeting to discuss the establishment of local Jeddah football (soccer) club. Association football, more commonly known as football or soccer, is a Team sport played between two teams of eleven players and is widely considered The attendees were Hamza Fitaihi "actual founder", Abdulsamad Najeeb Alsaady, Ismail Zahran, Ali Yamani, Abduazeez Jameel, Abdulateef Jameel, Othman Banajah and Ahmad Abu Talib. Ali Sultan and Ahmed Almir.
The name was coined by AbdulAziz Jameel who was quoted as saying: "Since we're gathered here united, let's call it United (Ittihad)". The late Ali Sultan was named as the club's first president, and it is worth to mention that Hasan Fitaihi was the first known fund contributor to the club.
In 1929 Ittihad played their first game, against rivals al-Riyadhi. After winning 3-0, Ittihad was given the seniority of Jeddan clubs. al-Riyadhi disbanded soon afterwards, leaving Ittihad as the only surviving club from the early days.
By the 1930s many clubs were formed, and challenge tournaments were regularly held, often sponsored by local businessmen. In 1937, Ittihad played their first game against eternal rival, al-Ahli (which ended in a draw). Football continued to be played on an unofficial basis until 1957 when the Saudi Football Federation was formed, and football clubs officially recognised. The first official tournament was held in that year, the King's cup, which was the premier competition until the formation of the national league in 1975. Ittihad didn't win the inaugural tournament, but did win it the next year, making it the first official trophy that Ittihad won.
In the mid seventies, the large oil boom allowed the Saudi government to lavish on sport. The General Presidency of youth welfare was formed, and existing football clubs were put under its control and turned into multi-sport clubs. al-Ittihad (as well as all other clubs) was transformed to the modern club that it is today.

In December 2006, the club offered what was thought to be the most lucrative deal in Arabian football to Portuguese midfielder Luís Figo. Portugal, officially the Portuguese Republic (República Portuguesa is a country on the Iberian Peninsula. Luís Filipe Madeira Caeiro Figo, (born 4 November 1972 in Almada, Portugal) is a professional Portuguese footballer It was said that Luís Figo will join the club on July 1st 2007 after his current contract with Inter Milan expires.

Mohamed Kallon's scandal

Riyadh ( الرياض Ar-Riyāḍ) is the Capital of Saudi Arabia and its largest city
Kallon rejected a one-and-a-half-year deal worth 10 million U.S dollar from Al-Hilal and raised a lawsuit against them due to the hostage situation that he was exposed to when he was leaving via Jeddah Airport. The United States dollar ( sign: $; code: USD) is the unit of Currency of the United States; it has also been King Abdulaziz International Airport (مطار الملك عبدالعزيز الدولي is an Aviation facility located in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
The case ended by suspending of Al-Ittihad manager Al-Balawi. Mansour Bin Hamdan Al-balawi (منصور بن حمدان البلوي, was the Chairman of Saudi Arabian sport club Al-Ittihad,Which based in Jeddah.
It was later believed that it was all a hoax, to set up Mansour, to get him suspended after a highly successful time spent at the club by Al-Hilal which all Ittihad fans believe to be true. Al-Hilal (الهلال is a Saudi Arabian professional football club based in the country's capital of Riyadh.
And all of this is a big lie made by Al-Hilal manger and other prince to suspend Al-Balawi. Al-Hilal (الهلال is a Saudi Arabian professional football club based in the country's capital of Riyadh. Mansour Bin Hamdan Al-balawi (منصور بن حمدان البلوي, was the Chairman of Saudi Arabian sport club Al-Ittihad,Which based in Jeddah.
