Sportera · 2026-07-04 · 21

Al Ahly of Egypt is, without dispute, the most successful club in the history of African football, thanks to a trophy cabinet built over decades.

Continental dominance

Al Ahly holds the record for the most CAF Champions League titles, ahead of rivals from Tunisia, Morocco and South Africa — a product of consistency, a massive fan base and strong squad-building.

Cairo finals

One highlight of Al Ahly’s continental journey is meeting bitter rivals Zamalek — on occasion in the final itself, a rare all-city continental showpiece.
