Centro Storico Lebowski is a football club based in the city of Florence, Tuscany, in Italy. It currently plays in Promozione - Group B, the sixth tier of Italian football. [2] [3]
On 26 November 2004, a small group of Italian high school students, who had grown tired of the mismanagement of ACF Fiorentina, began following a local amateur team called 'AC Lebowski' who were infamously unsuccessful. In one season they conceded 99 goals and were frequently bottom of the league. Initially confused by their new support, the team quickly accepted their new ultras group, who called themselves The Ultras Lebowski. [4]
In the summer of 2010, following the financial collapse of their beloved club, the former AC Lebowski ultras founded their own club which they called Centro Storico Lebowski, named in honor of the Piazza D'Azeglio where the club was born. The new team began playing in the Terza Categoria, the lowest level of the Italian football league system. [5]
Since then, the club has achieved three promotions and famously signed former Serie A midfielder Borja Valero after his contract with ACF Fiorentina was not renewed in 2021. [6]
