Africa d'Or: vote for the best African club of 2025

African club football has never been as competitive and diverse as it is in 2025, with teams making their mark through stellar performances both on the continent and at home. As the time comes to crown the African Club of the Year 2025, five sides stand out for their results, consistency, and impact on the international stage.

Pyramids FC (Egypt): African champions and a historic year

Pyramids FC made history by lifting the CAF Champions League trophy for the very first time, clinching a dramatic final 3-2 on aggregate against South Africa’s Mamelodi Sundowns. This continental triumph was soon followed by a CAF Super Cup victory—1-0 over RS Berkane—cementing the Egyptian club’s rise to the upper echelons of African football.

RS Berkane (Morocco): continental crown and Moroccan dominance

RS Berkane, meanwhile, enjoyed a thrilling 2025. Crowned national champions of the Botola and winners of the CAF Confederation Cup, the Moroccan side established itself as a continental powerhouse—even if they fell short in the Super Cup final. Their qualification for the 2025-26 CAF Champions League and top spots in the CAF rankings underscore significant progress.

Al Ahly SC (Egypt): the institution still on top

Al Ahly SC remains a historic reference in African football, dominating the CAF club rankings with a remarkable points tally and a regular presence in the latter stages of continental tournaments. Although eliminated in the Champions League semi-finals, the club’s record and influence continue to shine.

Mamelodi Sundowns (South Africa): relentless consistency and an African final

Mamelodi Sundowns, South African champions and Champions League finalists, also carried the continent’s flag on the global stage, notably competing at the FIFA Club World Cup. Their consistent presence at the highest level makes them one of Africa’s most formidable clubs.

Orlando Pirates (South Africa): a powerful return to the continental stage

Finally, Orlando Pirates made headlines in 2025, reaching the decisive rounds of the CAF Champions League before bowing out to Pyramids FC. Their fighting spirit and performances in African competitions make them serious contenders for the African Club of the Year crown.

Five clubs, five unique journeys, one shared ambition: to leave an indelible mark on 2025. Now it’s your turn to decide the African Club of the Year 2025.
