About KF Skënderbeu

KF Skënderbeu is a professional Albanian football club based in Korçë, southeastern Albania. The club was established in its current form in August 1926, named after Albania’s national hero Skanderbeg, although its football roots in the city trace back earlier. Skënderbeu plays its home matches at Skënderbeu Stadium, which has a capacity of around 12,343 spectators.

Skënderbeu is one of the most successful clubs in Albanian football history, having won eight Albanian league titles. After decades without major honours following their early success in the 1930s, the club experienced a revival in the 2010s, winning six consecutive championships from 2011 to 2016—a record in Albanian football.

On the European stage, Skënderbeu made history by becoming the first Albanian club to reach the group stage of a UEFA competition, doing so twice in the UEFA Europa League. In recent seasons the club has competed in the Kategoria e Parë (second tier) following relegation from the top flight, with ambitions to return to the Superiore.
