About SpVgg Greuther Fürth

SpVgg Greuther Fürth is a German professional football club based in Fürth, Bavaria, founded in 1903. The club is commonly referred to as Greuther Fürth and is known by the nickname “Kleeblätter” (Shamrocks). It plays its home matches at the Sportpark Ronhof and currently competes in the 2. Bundesliga, the second tier of German football, following relegation from the top division.

The club enjoyed its greatest success in the early 20th century, particularly in the pre-Bundesliga era. During this period, Fürth was one of the dominant teams in Germany, winning national championships in 1914, 1926, and 1929, and finishing as runner-up in 1920. These achievements established the club as a major force in the early development of German football.

In modern times, Greuther Fürth has mostly competed outside the top tier but has achieved occasional promotions to the Bundesliga, including its first appearance in the 2012–13 season and another promotion in 2021. However, it has struggled to maintain top-level status and has returned to the second division after relegations. Despite this, the club remains historically significant and maintains a strong regional rivalry with 1. FC Nürnberg.
