Racing de Veracruz is a Mexican professional football team based in Boca del Río, Veracruz that plays in the Liga Premier de México – Serie A.
History
On 5 December 2019, the Veracruz metro area was left without representation in Mexican football after the dissolution of Tiburones Rojos de Veracruz, a team that played in the Liga MX. Later, some clubs emerged seeking to fill the void left by the original team, such as Atlético Veracruz and Club Veracruzano de Fútbol Tiburón, however, both clubs failed in their attempt to attract fans from the city.
In March 2023, the Government of Veracruz began the reconstruction works of the Estadio Luis Pirata Fuente, with the aim of making it attractive to new investors interested in bringing a team to the city. Meanwhile, Porto Palmeiras, a local football school, began negotiations with the aim of getting a professional team for the city. In April 2023, it reached an agreement with Racing City Group, a Qatari conglomerate that owns teams around the world.
On April 23, 2023, the agreement between Porto Palmeiras and Racing City Group was announced, the new team was called Racing Porto Palmeiras.
