Grupo Desportivo Interclube, usually known as Interclube or Inter de Luanda, is an Angolan football club based in Luanda. The club is attached to the Angolan police force. Interclube is the only club based in Luanda with a stadium of its own as all the remaining clubs in the capital play their home matches at the state-owned 11 de Novembro, Cidadela and Coqueiros. The stadium, built in 2004, has an 8,000-seat capacity.
Founded on February 28, 1976 by the then Ministry of the Interior Santana André Pitra aka Petroff as Inter de Luanda, it won its first title, the Angolan Cup, in 1986.
In 2005, the club finished 9th in the Angolan first division. In that year, it also reached the domestic cup final, but was defeated 1–0 by ASA.
Two players from Inter represented the Angola national team in its first FIFA World Cup tournament, in 2006 in Germany: Miloy and Mário.
Interclube is one of the few clubs in Angola to play their home games in their own stadium, the Estádio 22 de Junho.
