Founded in 1897, the club competes in Belgium’s top division, the Belgian Pro League, and plays home matches at the Joseph Marien Stadium in Forest, a ground known for its distinctive art deco architecture. Union is among Belgium’s most successful teams, with 12 national league championships, including its 2024–25 title, which ended a 90-year wait for a league crown. The club has also won the Belgian Cup three times, most recently in 2024. After a long spell outside the top flight, Union returned to Belgium’s elite in 2021 and quickly re-established itself as a regular contender for domestic honours and European qualification. Recent notable players have included captain Christian Burgess, goalkeeper Anthony Moris and forward Promise David, although squad membership changes between seasons. The team’s yellow-and-blue colours and passionate supporter base make it a prominent part of Brussels football culture. With its historic stadium, celebrated comeback and growing presence in European competitions, Union Saint-Gilloise is one of Belgian football’s most compelling clubs.

The club plays its home matches at the Stade du Pays de Charleroi, a modern venue that hosted games during UEFA Euro 2000 and has a capacity of around 15,000.
