Club Puebla, known simply as Puebla, is a historic Mexican football club based in the city of Puebla, competing in Liga MX, the country's top division. The team, nicknamed *La Franja* (The Stripes) for its distinctive blue and white striped kit, plays its home matches at the iconic Estadio Cuauhtémoc. Founded in 1944, the club is owned by the Grupo Empresarial Ángeles and is currently led by a head coach tasked with returning the team to its former glory. The club was established by a group of local businessmen and has deep roots in the Puebla region. Their golden era undoubtedly came in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when they won two league championships (1983-84, 1989-90) and the CONCACAF Champions' Cup in 1991, led by legendary figures like Manuel "Manolo" Negrete. This period defined the club as a giant of Mexican football. The modern era has been more challenging, with Puebla often finding itself in relegation battles, though they have shown resilience and occasionally mounted surprise playoff runs, such as reaching the semifinals in the 2020 Guardianes tournament. The fan base is among the most passionate in Mexico, filling the Cuauhtémoc with a vibrant and loyal support system. Puebla remains a club with a rich history, forever striving to recapture the magic of its past successes.
