Mighty Mukuru Wanderers Football Club is a Malawian football club based in Blantyre. They currently play in the TNM Super League, the top division of Malawian football.
Mighty Mukuru Wanderers FC is one of the most successful teams in Malawi, having won the Super League of Malawi 6 times. Founded in 1962 by Portuguese immigrants in Blantyre, it is the oldest active club in Malawi. The founders of the club were FC Porto supporters in their homeland; as such, they incorporated the blue and white colours of Porto into the club's crest. The club's first official base was Chichiri in Blantyre. It is commonly rumoured that the current club house was built after a white Portuguese girl fell in love with club legend Yasin Osman, much to the displeasure of the Portuguese. As such, the club house was built specifically for African players after this incident to deter future love relationships between Africans and Europeans.
They have won 6 titles in the league. In 2005 and 2006 their leading striker, Aggrey Kanyenda was the top goal scorer in the 2005–06 season.[1]
Due to sponsorship reasons, the team was previously known as Limbe Leaf Wanderers, Telecom Wanderers, MTL Wanderers, Be Forward Wanderers.
In 2014, the club won sponsorship of about 70 million Malawi Kwacha from Be Forward, a Japanese Car Exporter.[2]
In 2017, coached by Yasin Osman, Wanderers won their first league title in 11 years.
In January 2021, Wanderers will change its name again after the Japanese second-hand car dealers, Be Forward, concludes its sponsorship contract.[3]
The Blantyre derby between Big Bullets and Mighty Wanderers is a fiercely contested match and in contrast to most of the other games played in the Malawi TNM Super League, matches between the two rivals always attract a large fanbase.
The club also shares notable rivalry with Silver Strikers FC. Matches between these games are also a notable fixture on the Football Calendar.
