Egypt’s Al Ahly clinched their 11th CAF Champions League title on Sunday, defeating Wydad Casablanca in the final of the continental competition.

With this victory, Al Ahly has also secured their place in the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, scheduled to take place in Saudi Arabia in December.

This will mark the club’s ninth appearance in the tournament, and they have also qualified for the 2025 edition, which will feature 32 teams under the new format.

Al Ahly, who now holds the record for the most Champions League titles, becomes the second Arab team to qualify for this year’s Club World Cup, following Saudi Arabian team Al-Ittihad.
