About Alki Larnaca FC

Alki Larnaca FC was a Cypriot football club based in the city of Larnaca. It was founded in 1948 and became one of the well-known traditional teams in Cypriot football. The club played its home matches at the GSZ Stadium and was nicknamed “The Immortal” (Αθάνατη). Alki was considered an important part of Larnaca’s football identity and built a loyal local fan base over the decades.

Throughout its history, Alki spent many seasons in the Cypriot First Division and was known for being a competitive but inconsistent side. One of its best periods came in the late 1970s, when the club finished third in the league (1978–79 season) and also reached the Cypriot Cup final. Despite several strong cup runs, Alki never managed to win a major national trophy, finishing as runner-up in the Cypriot Cup five times.

In 2014, Alki Larnaca FC was dissolved due to severe financial problems and mounting debts, ending its long history in Cypriot football. The club had accumulated significant financial liabilities, which ultimately led to bankruptcy and closure. Although the team no longer exists in professional leagues, it remains a remembered part of Cypriot football history, especially in Larnaca, where it had a strong cultural and sporting presence.
