In July 2018, after the bankruptcy of the main football team of the city, AC Cesena, a group of local businessmen acquired Romagna Centro and proposed to rename it to Cesena FC, to act as a phoenix club. However, the image rights of AC Cesena were acquired later.[5] The club played a friendly match against Romanian club Universitatea Cluj in 2018–19 pre-season.[6] In July 2018, Romagna Centro announced that the youth sector would train with former AC Cesena players.[7] However, the club was later known as RC Cesena, and was assigned to Group F of 2018–19 Serie D.[8]

After instantly winning promotion to Serie D, the club was renamed Cesena Football Club.[citation needed]

In the 2019–20 season the club is competing in the Serie C's Girone B.[citation needed]

Colours and badge

As Romagna Centro, the team's colours were lightblue and white.[2][9][10]
