KF Skënderbeu Korçë is considered one of the most successful teams in the history of Albanian football, especially in terms of its performances in European competitions. The club has reached the group stage of the UEFA Europa League twice and has progressed through four qualifying rounds—an achievement unmatched by any other Albanian team.

Another historic milestone was securing 47th place in the global ranking published by International Federation of Football History & Statistics.

Moreover, Skënderbeu was ranked ahead of several well-known European clubs such as Lazio, Borussia Dortmund, Ludogorets Razgrad, Corinthians, Ajax, Schalke 04, Villarreal CF, FC Porto, and Atalanta BC, among others.
