Al-Ahli Tripoli are one of Libya’s oldest and most successful football clubs, competing in the Libyan Premier League and sharing a fierce cross-city rivalry with Al-Ittihad Tripoli. Founded in 1950 during the country's struggle for independence, the club emerged as a symbol of national identity and has since developed one of the largest and most passionate supporter bases in Libyan football. Known as The Greens, Al-Ahli have won 14 national league championships, second only to Al-Ittihad's 18, alongside numerous domestic cup honours. After winning their first national championship in 1963–64, the club enjoyed particularly successful periods during the 1970s and early 1990s. More recently, Al-Ahli claimed league titles in 2015–16, 2022–23 and 2024–25, securing their 14th championship with a 2–0 victory over Al-Hilal Benghazi in a decisive match played in Milan, Italy. Despite the disruptions experienced by Libyan football over recent decades, Al-Ahli remain a dominant force domestically and regular participants in African continental competitions.
Tady Etekiama, also known as Daddy Birori, is a Congolese-born former Rwandan international footballer who was a prolific striker for a number of leading clubs in Africa throughout the 2010s. Born in Kinshasa in 1986, he began his senior career in Rwanda with Mukura Victory Sports, ATRACO and Kiyovu Sports before joining AS Vita Club in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where he established himself as a notable goalscorer and featured in the CAF Champions League. Between 2009 and 2014, Etekiama represented the Rwanda national team, making 25 international appearances and scoring seven goals. His international career ended in controversy in 2014 after discrepancies involving his identity, nationality documents and date of birth resulted in a two-year suspension by the Confederation of African Football. In February 2018, he signed for Libyan club Al-Ahli Tripoli, where he had a brief spell before stints in Angola for Kabuscorp and later Sagrada Esperança. In 2020, he returned to AS Vita Club and later joined FC Renaissance du Congo in 2023.
