Transfers Synthesis

The recorded movement from July 2022 to July 2026 presents TP Mazembe as a club with regular cross-border squad turnover, but it does not establish a complete transfer balance. Arrivals include players from Congolese sides and clubs in Senegal, Ghana, Mali, Morocco, Malawi, Tanzania and Switzerland, with the listed movements identifying free moves, loans and loan returns in selected cases. Departures reach a similarly broad international network, including destinations in Tunisia, Sudan, Morocco, Algeria, Côte d’Ivoire, Tanzania, Malawi and Vietnam, while FC Luzern appears in both outgoing loan and transfer entries for O. Kabwit. Some movements have no usable transaction label, and repeated records can describe the same movement differently. The evidence supports a picture of player recruitment and circulation, not a verified net-spend or total-arrivals assessment.

Leagues TP Mazembe has participated in

TP Mazembe’s recorded competition footprint spans domestic, continental and global stages. Ligue 1, the club’s domestic league entry, is the most recent active competition in the records, with participation recorded from 2019 through 2025. The CAF Champions League is recorded from 2019 to 2024, while the African Football League appears for 2023. Earlier participation includes the CAF Confederation Cup from 2017 to 2022 and the FIFA Club World Cup in 2015. The continental and global entries are historical, while Ligue 1 remains the recent domestic competition associated with the club.

More about TP Mazembe

TP Mazembe, formally Tout Puissant Mazembe, is a football club from Lubumbashi in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Founded in 1939, it began as Saint Georges, established by Benedictine monks, became Englebert and later adopted the Tout Puissant Mazembe name. Its black-and-white identity is inseparable from Les Corbeaux, or The Ravens, a nickname reflected in the raven symbol associated with the badge. Vertical black-and-white stripes remain a defining visual tradition. The club’s home is Stade TP Mazembe in Lubumbashi’s Kamalondo commune. The modern, club-owned venue has an artificial-turf pitch and an intimate atmosphere that gives home matches a concentrated, high-intensity setting. It is more than a stadium in the club’s public identity, connecting matchday culture with the institutional infrastructure built around Mazembe. Mazembe is a central force in Congolese football and the domestic Ligue 1 ecosystem. Its continental identity is even broader, with a long record in CAF Champions League and CAF Confederation Cup competition and a reputation as one of Africa’s most formidable clubs. The club also made global history by becoming the first African side to reach the FIFA Club World Cup final, a milestone that expanded its profile beyond the continent. Long-standing ownership and leadership under Moïse Katumbi helped transform Mazembe into a professionally structured institution with ambitious facilities and a strong development pathway linked to the Katia Football Academy lineage. That backing sits alongside a recruitment culture drawing on Congolese talent and wider West and Central African networks. The result is a club shaped by local belonging, pan-African ambition and an expectation of technical quality, athletic power and sustained excellence. TP Mazembe combines that durable heritage with a recent domestic presence.
