FC Lugano was founded in 1908 and converted to the name AC Lugano in 2004 as a result of FC Lugano's financial instability. The club took back its original name in 2008 and has since continued the team's history of excellence while playing home games at Stadio Cornaredo. FC Lugano won its first Swiss Super League in 1938 and its first Swiss Cup in 1931.
