History
The club was formed in 1923 as FK Borci (meaning "fighters" in Serbian). [1]
In 1953, a group of local enthusiasts refounded the club as FC Ferizaj with the aim of creating a football club to represent their city. The establishment marked the beginning of its long-term development within regional football. During its early years, the club faced significant challenges, including limited infrastructure and financial resources. Training sessions were often held on school fields, and matches were played in smaller local venues. Despite these constraints, the club continued to develop through the dedication of players, staff, and supporters. [2]
Over time, FC Ferizaj gained recognition within Kosovo football and gradually progressed through the domestic league system. The club later competed in the country’s higher divisions, including appearances in the Kosovo Superleague. [2]
In addition to its competitive activities, the club placed emphasis on youth development through its academy system. Several players developed at the club advanced to professional careers, including participation in national teams and transfers to clubs abroad. [2]
On 7 July 2019, FC Ferizaj held a media conference announcing that a group of English and local investors had assumed leadership of the club. Among the investors was former English international striker Brian Deane, who acquired a 50% share in the club. [3] In December 2019, the English investors withdrew from the club, and the local investors took full ownership of the club. [4]
