About the brand ❤️
The AFC Champions League is Asia’s premier club football competition, bringing together top-division clubs from across AFC’s member nations to compete for continental supremacy. Founded in 1967 as the Asian Champion Club Tournament, it evolved over decades — merging regional cups and rebranding in 2002 into the AFC Champions League, and again in 2024 as AFC Champions League Elite under a refreshed format. The tournament is managed by the Asian Football Confederation, headquartered in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and features clubs that qualify based on their domestic league or cup performance. With dozens of teams from East and West Asia, the competition determines the region's best club and offers qualification to global tournaments such as the FIFA Club World Cup. The ACL remains a prestigious stage showcasing Asia’s top football talent on the continental stage.
