Espérance Sportive de Tunis, known as ES Tunis, is Tunisia's most successful and best-supported football club. Based in the capital and often playing at the Stade Hammadi Agrebi, the club has built a reputation as North Africa's most consistent continental competitor. Espérance's red-and-yellow colors are among the most recognized in Tunisian sport, and the club regularly draws massive crowds for its biggest domestic and continental fixtures. Its blend of domestic dominance and continental pedigree places it among Africa's true footballing giants.
Founded on January 15, 1919, Espérance has gone on to win a record 34 Tunisian Ligue 1 titles, more than any other club in the country's history. On the continental stage, the club has claimed the CAF Champions League four times, in 1994, 2011, 2018 and 2019. That sustained success across both domestic and continental competition has made Espérance one of the pillars of North African football. The club's century-long history has cemented its place among the most decorated clubs on the continent.
