In August 2023, businessman and politician Vidiye Tshimanga purchased the top-flight Linafoot licence of Jeunesse Sportive de Kinshasa. During a press conference held on 21 August 2023, he announced that Les Aigles du Congo would be a multi-sport club and would not be considered a continuation of JS Kinshasa. [1]

In the 2024–25 season, the club won its first national championship title.
