Wikipedia - US Ancona
Unione Sportiva Ancona, commonly referred to as Ancona, is an Italian football club based in Ancona, Marche.
The club is widely considered to be the heir of defunct former Serie A club Ancona, with whom it shares its official historical logo. The continuation of football in Ancona goes back to 1905 when the original club was first founded.
History
Ancona has a long history of football clubs sharing the same red and white colours and a similar logo. Originally, the club was named Anconitana before changing the name to reflect the city of Ancona in the 1980s. Reaching the final of the 1994 Coppa Italia and spending two seasons in the Serie A eleven years apart, the original club was refounded after a 2004 relegation from the top flight in last place. This came after the club had loaded up on experienced players of high profile such as Mário Jardel, Dario Hübner and Eusebio Di Francesco without success. Six years later, the club was refounded again, demoting it from the second to fourth tier. In 2017, a third bankruptcy saw the refounded club drop out of the professional leagues.
The most recent club was founded in 2021 as the merger of Serie C club S.S. Matelica Calcio 1921, from the city of Matelica, with Ancona-based Eccellenza club Anconitana.
As part of the merger, all logos and naming rights of Matelica were given away to Prima Categoria club G.S. Corrado Fabiani Matelica, formally owned by chairman Mauro Canil's wife and which is now to be legally considered the heir of Matelica itself, whereas, as part of the merger, Anconitana brought the original footballing logo, as well as the rights to use the Stadio del Conero in the city of Ancona. The new club's board will be the same as Matelica's, with Mauro Canil as majority shareholder and chairman, whereas Anconitana's original owner Stefano Marconi will be linked to Ancona-Matelica as the club's official main sponsor for the following five years. The club board stated their aim to have the official name changed to just "Ancona" by 2022, pending approval by the Italian Football Federation.
On 30 March 2022, Malaysian billionaire entrepreneur Tony Tiong, nephew of Tiong Hiew King, was announced as the new majority shareholder, after having acquired 95% of the club's shares. By the end of the season, the club changed its denomination to Unione Sportiva Ancona, thus severing its association with Matelica altogether.
Known for their passionate fan base and strong team spirit, Ancona-Matelica has a rich history of success on the field. The team plays their home matches at the Stadio del Conero, a historic stadium located in Ancona.
With a talented roster of players and a dedicated coaching staff, Ancona-Matelica is always a formidable opponent on the pitch. The team's colors are red and white, and their crest features a combination of symbols representing both Ancona and Matelica.
Overall, Ancona-Matelica is a respected and competitive team in Italian soccer, with a bright future ahead.
