Alianza Atlético de Sullana is a Peruvian football club based in the city of Sullana, competing in the Liga 1, the top division of Peruvian football. The club plays its home matches at the Estadio Campeones del 36, though they often host games in larger venues like the Estadio Miguel Grau in Callao. Founded in 1920, the team is famously known as *Los Churres* and wears a distinctive blue and white kit with a diagonal sash. One of the oldest clubs in northern Peru, Alianza Atlético has a passionate local fanbase but a history marked more by survival than sustained glory. Their key era came in the early 2000s when, under the management of Juan Carlos Oblitas, they achieved a historic runner-up finish in the 2003 Torneo Descentralizado, qualifying for the Copa Libertadores. This period remains the club's pinnacle. In the modern era, they have often been a yo-yo club between the first and second divisions, frequently battling relegation. Their current competitiveness revolves around consolidating their top-flight status. The team culture is defined by fierce local pride in Sullana, with loyal supporters following them across the country. Alianza Atlético remains a historic, battle-hardened club fighting to reclaim past heights in Peruvian football.
