KRL are a Pakistani football club who play in the Pakistan Premier League. They play their home games at the KRL stadium in Karachi and are founding members of the PPL.

They were Championship runners up in 2001, and have been 3rd place in PPL in 2004, 2005, 2006/07 and 2007/8.

Since the turn of the millennium, KRL have become one of the three dominant clubs in Pakistan. They have the best funding and the best training facilities in the country. KRL pulled off a major coup when they signed Muhammad Essa in 2006. Despite all this they have yet to become national champions.
