Abdul Rahman bin Saud bin Abdulaziz Al Saud (19 November 1946 – 29 July 2004) was a member of Saudi royal family, House of Saud.

He was well known as godfather of Al-Nassr Club as he spent more than 36 years as the president of the popular Saudi sports club. He was the head of Al-Nassr for 3 stints: (1960–1969), (1975–1997) and (2000–2005). His love of the team made him accept the challenge of being the president of a second division club and turning it to a champion.
