History
editFounded in 1994 as Manisa Belediyespor, the club started to compete in the Turkish Regional Amateur League in the 2011–2012 season. After the 2013–14 season the club name was altered into Manisa Büyükşehir Belediyespor, referring to the metropolitan municipality status of Manisa. On 31 July 2019, the club changed its name from Manisa Büyükşehir Belediyespor into Manisa Futbol Kulübü, cutting its ties with the municipality.[1]
The club secured the title 5 weeks before the end of the 2020–21 season in TFF Second League Group White.[2] Manisa clinched their title with an unbeaten record in 36 games, becoming the first Turkish professional side to achieve this since 1991–1992.[3]
The team previously played its home matches at the Mümin Özkasap Stadium.[4]
