About FK Radnički Beograd

FK Radnički Beograd is a Serbian football club based in Belgrade, founded on 20 April 1920 by students of a construction-craft school. The club was among the early organized football teams in the city and quickly joined the Belgrade Football Association, beginning competition in the lower divisions of the interwar Yugoslav football system. In its early years, Radnički struggled for stability but gradually built its identity as a workers’ club with strong local roots.

The club’s first major success came in the 1924–25 season when it won its league group, marking an important step in its development. After World War II, Radnički continued to compete within the Yugoslav football structure and eventually reached the top tier, where it experienced its strongest era in the 1950s. One of its most notable achievements was reaching the Yugoslav Cup final in the 1956–57 season, finishing as runners-up, which remains the club’s biggest historical accomplishment.

In the following decades, Radnički Beograd gradually declined from top-level football. After relegation from higher divisions in the mid-1960s, the club moved between lower leagues and eventually spent most of its later history outside the elite competition. Despite this decline, it remained an active club in Serbian football, continuing to participate in the domestic league system and maintaining its identity as one of the older clubs in Belgrade football history.
