History

edit

Abarán Club de Fútbol was founded in 1969 to replace CD Abarán which were dissolved two years earlier. They first reached Tercera División in 1988, and spent eight consecutive seasons in the division before being renamed to Club Deportivo Abarán in 1996.

In 1999, CD Abarán suffered relegation due to debts, and their place in the fourth division was bought by Atlético Abarán; CD Abarán still played one further season in the Territorial Preferente before being dissolved. In 2001, Atlético Abarán changed name back to Abarán Club de Fútbol, but were bought by FC Cartagena in 2004, being renamed to Cartagena Promesas Club de Fútbol, moving to Cartagena and becoming their reserve team.

In 2006, the affiliation agreement with Cartagena ended, and the club played the season under the name of Club Imperial Promesas Rincón de Seca in Rincón de Seca [es]. In 2007, a local businessman named Gregorio Muñoz (Gori) bought the club, moved it to Lorca and renamed it to Ciudad de Lorca Club de Fútbol.

In 2009, after suffering relegation from the fourth division and having a 40,000 debt, Gori unsuccessfully tried to sell the club to other businessmen, at they later were dissolved.
