history

The Carpi Football Club was founded in 1909 by the student Adolfo Fanconi in the northern Italian city of Carpi. The first club name was Jucunditas . A few years later the name of the club was changed, from 1915 onwards it was called Associazione Calcio Carpi , or AC Carpi for short . This club name was used until 2000, before the club was given the current name Carpi FC in 1909 .

For a long time, the Carpi football club never played higher than in the third- tier Lega Pro Prima Divisione or the earlier Serie C1. The Emilian club celebrated its greatest success when in the 1996/97 season under coach Luigi De Canio , who later coached teams such as Udinese Calcio , US Lecce or CFC Genoa , third place in Group 1 of the C1 series reached. In the following promotion playoffs for the promotion for the Serie B they failed only in the final at AC Monza Brianza with 2: 3. After that, however, Carpi FC went steeply downhill. After relegation to the C2 series could still be prevented in 1998, this happened a year later with an eighteenth place in group 1 of the C1 series.

In 2000, AC Carpi was declared bankrupt and re-established under the name Carpi FC in 1909 . They started in the Eccellenza. In 2002 they returned to Serie D and in 2010 Carpi FC rose again to the fourth-class Lega Pro Seconda Divisione . There the team did very well right from the start and in the end came first in Group B with two points ahead of Carrarese Calcio . After being promoted back to the third division, coach Egidio Notaristefano's team performed well and, after all match days, took a surprising third place in the Girona A of the Lega Pro Prima Divisione. This entitles Carpi FC to participate in the playoffs for promotion to the second division, where they met Sorrento Calcio in the first round . They prevailed against the Campanians and had to compete with the US Pro Vercelli in the final for promotion to the second division . The first leg ended goalless in Vercelli , the second leg in Modena was decided by Vercelli 3-1 and was promoted to Serie B instead of Carpi.

In the following season, at the end of all game days of Lega Pro Prima Divisione A, Carpi FC ranked third in the table, only behind Trapani Calcio , which managed direct promotion to Serie B, and US Lecce and was thus again eligible for the playoff Games for promotion to the second division. They met FC Südtirol in the semifinals and were able to prevail 4: 3 on both sides, while Lecce won the other semifinals against Virtus Entella and consequently became opponent Carpis. After Carpi had the upper hand in the home game with 1-0 against the big favorites from southern Italy, the team of coach Fabio Brini , who had replaced Daniele Tacchini during the season, made it 1-1 at the Stadio Via del Mare zu Lecce. A tie for promotion to Serie B - for the first time in the club's more than 100 years of history.

After an average first season in Serie B, which Carpi finished in 12th place, the club made history again in the 2014/15 season: With the 0-0 win against AS Bari on matchday 38, FC Carpi fixed four rounds his fourth ascent in six years before the end. The club from the Modena province will thus play in Italy's top league for the first time in the 2015/16 season . There, however, the start of the season failed with only two points from the first six games, whereupon the club separated from coach Fabrizio Castori . His successor Giuseppe Sannino was dismissed at the beginning of November 2015 - after only four points in five league games - and Castori was immediately committed again. The opening goal scored on January 9, 2016 in the 2-1 home win against Udinese Calcio meant not only his goal debut in Serie A for midfielder Lorenzo Pasciuti , but also a league record: he moved to Carpi in December 2009 and has been with the club four times so far Ascended Pasciuti had thus scored in the five highest leagues in Italy in the jersey of the same club.
