Suez Sporting Club (Arabic: نادي منتخب السويس للألعاب الرياضية), also known as Suez Montakhab, is an Egyptian football club based in Suez, Egypt. The club currently plays in the Egyptian Second Division, the second-highest league in the Egyptian football league system.

History

After two clubs of Suez city were relegated to the Egyptian Second Division (the first was Ittihad Suez club in season 1965/1966 and the second was Suez El-Riyadi club in season 1966/1967) the two clubs joined to found Suez Montakhab Club in 1967.

• Ittihad Suez club played in the Egyptian Premier League for ten seasons starting from season 1955/1956.
• Suez El-Riyadi club played in the Egyptian Premier League for five seasons starting from season 1957/1958 and reached the final of the Egypt Cup in season 1964/1965 but lost the final against Tersana 4/1.
• Suez Montakhab played in the Egyptian Premier League for fifteen seasons starting from season 1974/1975 and reached the final of the Egypt Cup in season 1989/1990 but lost the final against Al-Mokawloon Al-Arab 2/1 and won fourth place in the League Cup in season 1999/2000 when Suez Montakhab beat Ma'aden 2/1. The EFA abolished this result because Suez Montakhab used an ineligible player and Ma'aden won the third place.

Since that time, Suez Montakhab has played in the Egyptian Second Division.
