Dhaka Wanderers Club (Bengali: ঢাকা ওয়ান্ডারার্স ক্লাব) is a Bangladeshi professional football club from Motijheel area of Dhaka, Bangladesh. It currently competes in the Bangladesh Premier League, the top flight of Bangladeshi football, having gained promotion from the 2023–24 Bangladesh Championship League.
The Wanderers are one of the oldest and most successful clubs in the country. They won seven domestic First Division titles prior to the Independence of Bangladesh. The club also triumphed in the Independence Day Cup in both 1957 and 1966. In continental football, their greatest achievement remains a runners-up trophy in the 1963 Aga Khan Gold Cup. However, their only success post-independence was a runners-up finish in the 1987 Federation Cup.
The club uses the BSSS Mostafa Kamal Stadium in Dhaka as their home venue. Wanderers have a long-standing rivalry with Dhaka Mohammedan, which dates back to the East Pakistan era, although its intensity has decreased over the years. The club's traditional home colours are black and white, similar to their arch-rivals.
