Levante UD Stats & History

Founded as Levante Football Club in 1909, Levante are the oldest club in Valencia. Levante first played in the second division in 1934-35 and won their first national title in 1937. During the Spanish Civil War a tournament called the Copa de la España Libre was organized. Levante defeated city rivals Valencia 1-0 in the final.

An important year for the Levante UD stats was in 1939. They merged with local club Gimnastico and were renamed Levante Union Deportiva. Despite the merger, the club wouldn’t reach La Liga until the 1960s. In 1963, Levante were runners up in their second division group but won the promotion playoffs to reach the top tier.

In their first season in La Liga, Levante won both Derby del Turias over rivals Valencia. Despite those notable moments in the Levante UD stats, they were relegated after just one season. Levante spent the vast majority of their time over the next couple of decades in the second and third divisions.
