Saeb Jendeya (Arabic: صائب جندية) (born May 13, 1975 in Gaza, Gaza Strip) is a former Palestinian footballer and coach.

He played as a defender. He has amassed 70 caps since Palestine's induction into FIFA in 1998. He is the former captain of the Palestinian national team and served as captain from 1999 to his retirement from international football in 2009. Jendeya has scored one goal with the national team- a midfield shot against Libya in injury-time that leveled the score at 2-2 in the 1999 Pan-Arab Games.
