Modena Football Club 2018 represents the continuation of a rich football tradition in the city of Modena, Emilia-Romagna. The original club, founded on April 5, 1912, through the merger of Football Club Audax Modena and l'Associazione Studentesca del Calcio Modena, adopted the yellow and blue colours from its inception, earning them the nickname 'Canarini'. Throughout its extensive history, Modena has played in various tiers of Italian football, including several seasons in Serie A, the top division. Their home is the Stadio Alberto Braglia, a stadium with a capacity of 21,092 spectators, which has witnessed countless sporting battles and memorable moments.
After facing serious economic difficulties that led to the original club's demise in 2017, the passion for football in Modena did not die out. In 2018, thanks to the efforts of local figures, the club was refounded as Modena FC 2018, starting a new chapter from Serie D. With determination and the support of their loyal fanbase, the 'Gialloblù' (another of their nicknames) achieved consecutive promotions, culminating in their return to Serie B, where they currently compete, seeking to revive past glories and consolidate their sporting project. The entity not only focuses on the men's first team but also operates youth teams, fostering local talent.
