# List of top-division football clubs in AFC countries

The List of top-division football clubs in Asian Football Confederation (AFC) countries. The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) includes all countries within the Asian territory as members, except Armenia, Azerbaijan, Chagos Islands, Christmas Island, Cocos Islands, Cyprus, Egypt, Georgia, Israel, Kazakhstan, Russia and Turkey, as most of them are affiliated with another confederation, or none at all. The AFC also includes as members the Oceanian countries of Australia, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands.
Each of the AFC member countries has their own football league systems. The clubs playing in top-level league compete for the title as the country' champions, and also for places in next season's AFC club competitions: the AFC Champions League Elite, the AFC Champions League Two and the AFC Challenge League. Due to promotion and relegation, the clubs playing in the top-level league are usually different every season.
The champions of the previous season in each country are listed in bold.
Some clubs play in a national football league other than their own country's. In particular, the Australian A-League includes a team from New Zealand, whose national federation is a member of the Oceania Football Confederation.
| Club name | Club finished the previous season as league champions. |

## League ranking
