Al-Tijara Sport Club (Trade SC, Arabic: نادي التجارة الرياضي) is an Iraqi professional football club based in Baghdad, that competes in the Iraqi Second Division League.[2] [3]
Al-Tijara was founded in 1974 as Al-Iktisad as an amalgamation of Ministry of Trade teams, the most prominent of which were the Orosdi-Back team and the Al-Asha team.[4] Al-Iktisad gained promotion to the Iraqi Premier League in 1975.[5] The team played fifteen seasons in the Iraqi Premier League until 1992,[6] first three seasons (1975–78) from those, played in their old name Al-Iktisad.[7]
In 2014, sports activities were suspended in the club, and after four years, in 2018, activities resumed and new teams were established in various sports, including the football team, which recently qualified to play in the Iraqi First Division League.[8] [9]
