2004–05 Arab Champions League


The 2004–05 Arab Champions League was the second edition of a new format called Arab Champions League replacing the former Arab Unified Club Championship. The teams represented Arab nations from Africa and Asia. Al-Ittihad Jeddah of Saudi Arabia won the final against CS Sfaxien of Tunisia.
The competition's sponsor ART invited Iraq's Al-Talaba to compete. The Iraqi FA then nominated two other clubs to participate alongside Al-Talaba, but UAFA only allowed Al-Talaba to compete. The Iraqi FA then withdrew Al-Talaba from the tournament and were subsequently suspended from UAFA.
