Metropolitanos Fútbol Club is a Venezuelan professional football club based in Caracas. Founded in 2012, they play in the Venezuelan Primera División, holding home matches at the Estadio Olímpico de la UCV.
History
Founded on 3 August 2012 under the name of Deportivo Metropolitano, the club took Lara FC's place in the Segunda División for the 2012–13 season, as the latter had severe financial problems. After Lara's dissolution, Unión Lara SC was refounded and started to play in the Tercera División.
After finishing fourth and missing out promotion, Metropolitanos achieved promotion to the Primera División at the end of the 2013–14 campaign, after finishing in the second position. After suffering relegation in 2015, the club immediately returned to the top tier after winning the second division in 2016.
After narrowly avoiding relegation in 2017, Metropolitanos finished in the penultimate position overall in 2018, but benefitted from the league's expansion to remain in the first division. After the arrival of José María Morr as manager, the club qualified to the Copa Sudamericana in 2020 and 2021, aside from winning a first-ever title in 2022.
Klubbens bedst kendte spiller er Josef Martínez, som har spillet for klubben siden 2014. Martínez er den førende målscorer i Primera División og har også scoret mål for Venezuela.
Metropolitanos er en relativt ny klub, men har allerede opnået succes i venezuelansk fodbold. Klubben vandt Copa Venezuela i 2017 og sluttede på andenpladsen i Primera División i 2018.
Metropolitanos har en ung og talentfuld trup, og forventes at fortsætte med at være en af de bedste klubber i Venezuelas førstedivision i de kommende år.
