Asociación Deportivo Cali, best known as Deportivo Cali, is a Colombian sports club based in Cali, most notable for its football team, which currently competes in the Categoría Primera A.
Deportivo Cali is one of the most successful football teams in Colombia, having won ten domestic league championships, one Copa Colombia and one Superliga Colombiana, for a total of twelve titles. Their stadium, Estadio Deportivo Cali, with an original capacity of 61,890, is the largest football stadium in Colombia, but has recently seen reductions in capacity due to renovations.
Deportivo Cali is the only Colombian football club that owns its own stadium, and the only club in Colombia to be owned by its fans.[1] It was also the first Colombian team to reach the Copa Libertadores final in 1978.[2] In 2016, Forbes listed Deportivo Cali as the 36th most valuable football team of the Americas.[3]
