The club
From Assiut to the top of Africa.
Pyramids were founded in 2008, hundreds of kilometres south of the capital and under a different name. In 2018 the club was bought, renamed and moved to Cairo. Seven years after that, it was champions of Africa. Very few clubs anywhere have travelled that far, that fast.
Founded 2008
Born in Assiut as Al Assiouty Sport, a long way from where the club stands today.
Reborn in Cairo, 2018
A new name, a new city and a new ambition. Owned since July 2019 by Salem Al Shamsi.
Champions of Africa, 2025
The fourth Egyptian club ever to lift the CAF Champions League, after Al Ahly, Zamalek and Ismaily.
