Grasshopper Club Zürich, often simply called Grasshopper, is a Swiss football institution based in Zürich and a founding member of the Swiss Super League. The club plays its home matches at the Letzigrund stadium. Founded in 1886, Grasshopper is the oldest and most successful club in Swiss football history, with traditional colors of blue and white. The club's name originates from its English founders. Grasshopper's history is one of dominance, having won a record 27 Swiss league titles and 19 Swiss Cups. Their golden eras spanned multiple decades, particularly the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, when they featured Swiss legends and competed regularly in European competitions. However, the modern era has been challenging, with the club suffering a first-ever relegation from the top flight in 2019. After a few seasons in the Challenge League, they achieved promotion back to the Super League, aiming to restore their former glory. The current squad is a blend of experienced campaigners and young talents, playing an attacking style of football. The club boasts a large and dedicated fanbase, with a fierce rivalry with FC Zürich defining the city's football culture. Grasshopper remains a iconic name, on a mission to climb back to the summit of Swiss football.
