About RC Luxembourg

Racing Club Luxembourg was a football club based in Luxembourg City, founded in 1907. It is historically significant as one of the pioneers of organised football in the country and played a central role in the early development of the national game. The club competed in the first official Luxembourg championship and quickly became one of the strongest teams in the capital during the pre-war era. It was also one of the key contributors to the formation of early football structures in Luxembourg.

The club achieved major early success, becoming the first-ever champion of Luxembourg in the 1909–10 season. It also won the first edition of the Luxembourg Cup in 1922, further confirming its status as a leading team of its time. Racing Club was part of a dominant group of capital clubs that shaped Luxembourg football in its formative years, often supplying players to the national team and influencing the sport’s early growth in the country.

In 1923, Racing Club Luxembourg merged with Sporting Club Luxembourg to form CA Spora Luxembourg, marking the end of its independent existence. Despite dissolving as a separate entity, its legacy continued through successor clubs that went on to achieve further domestic and international success. Racing Club Luxembourg is remembered as one of the foundational teams in Luxembourg football history, with a lasting impact on the sport’s development in the country.
