History

edit

Salamanca AC was founded on 28 June 2013, as a replacement for UD Salamanca which was dissolved due to financial issues. Initially assigned to Tercera División,[2] the Royal Spanish Football Federation admitted the club in Segunda División B shortly after,[3] but finally it did not register to play in any competition. The club did not appear in the following campaign either.[4] The same happened before the 2015-16 season[5]

In July 2016, the Supreme Court finally gave the reason to the Royal Spanish Football Federation and would probably suppose the dissolution of the Salamanca AC project.[6]
