Campobasso Football Club

L'Unione Sportiva S.S.D. Campobasso 1919, commonly referred to as Campobasso Football Club, is an Italian football club located in Campobasso, Molise, currently playing in Serie D, the fourth tier of Italian football. The club is the primary team of the region of Molise and traces its roots back to 1919. Campobasso plays its home games in the Nuovo Stadio Romagnoli, which is the largest outdoor stadium in the region of Molise and one of the largest in Southern Italy with a capacity of 21,800. In 2022, the club was acquired by United States-based holding company North Sixth Group and an investment group backed by Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos, Montreal-based real estate investor Angelo Pasto and other international investors. Campobasso made its debut in 1919 and reached the height of its success in the 1980’s when the club was promoted to Serie B and played five consecutive seasons in the second tier of Italian football. During this period, Campobasso became a popular team across Italy and defeated larger clubs including Lazio, Parma, Genoa, and its most historic victory, a 1-0 home win against Juventus in the Coppa Italia. Among its trophies, Campobasso has won the 2014 Coppa Italia Dilettanti, and it has won three Serie D championships in 1974-75, 1999-2000 and 2020-21. The primary colors of the club are red and blue and the nickname is the Wolves.
