Tournament for champions of the CAF nations. The away goals rule was introduced in the 1974 competition, and a Champions' League format in 1997. In 2004 the Champions League format was changed so that the top-12 countries (at the time, Algeria, Angola, Cameroon, DR Congo, Egypt, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Morocco, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa and Tunisia, according to a simple ranking system) can enter a second team.
The original trophy, the Osagyefo Cup donated by Dr Kwame Nkrumah, was kept by Hafia of Guinea which had become the first team to win it for a third time in 1977. It was replaced with the Ahmed Sékou Touré trophy, which in turn was kept by Zamalek of Egypt in 1993. The next trophy was donated by CAF itself, and was kept by Al-Ahly of Egypt in 2006.
