History
Quảng Nam Football Club was founded from the Công nhân Quảng Nam - Đà Nẵng football team.[1][2] After the separation of the provinces in 1997, the Quảng Nam football team was established separately. After many ups and downs, in 2013, the team won the national first division championship and played in the V.League 2014. In the 2017 season, the team made history by winning its first national championship.[3] However, due to not meeting the criteria of the AFC, Quảng Nam gave up the place to attend the AFC Cup 2018 to FLC Thanh Hóa.[4][5][6]
In the National Cup, Quảng Nam also won the bronze medal twice in 2016 and 2017,[7] won the runner-up in 2019, and won the National Super Cup in 2017.[8][9] In 2020, after an unsuccessful season, Quảng Nam was forced to play in the 2021 National First Division Football Tournament.[10][11] According to the team development plan, Quảng Nam must return to the professional league within 3 years, the earliest being in 2021.[12][13][14]
On December 26, 2011, the club was renamed QNK Quảng Nam after being sponsored by QNK Investment Joint Stock Company. On December 29, 2016, the team officially changed its name to Quảng Nam Football Club as it is known today.[15] On November 25, 2017, in the last round of V-League 2017, CLB Quảng Nam won 3-1 against CLB TP.HCM at Tam Kỳ home stadium.[15][16][17]
In 2023, Quảng Nam won the championship of V. League 2-2023 and won the only ticket to play in the V. League 1 in the 2023-2024 season.[18][19]
