History

UD Ibiza was founded in 2015 by former Valencia CF president Amadeo Salvo, as a revival of UD Ibiza-Eivissa which had folded five years earlier. The new organisation was allowed to use the old one's identity, by settling its €50,000 debt with the Royal Spanish Football Federation and the regional federation in the Balearic Islands.[2] In June 2017, the club was promoted to Tercera División after spending two seasons in the Regional league.[3]

On 7 August 2018, after the RFEF blocked Lorca FC's participation in Segunda División B, Ibiza paid the club's debts and achieved an administrative promotion to the third level.[4]

In 2019–20, the club competed in the Copa del Rey for the first time. They defeated Pontevedra and Albacete Balompié before a 1–2 home loss to FC Barcelona in the round of 32, having led the league title holders with 20 minutes to play.[5] In the following edition, UD Ibiza beat a top-flight team for the first time, winning 5–2 against Celta Vigo in the second round of the competition;[6] later they lost 2–1 to Athletic Bilbao after extra time.[7]

On 23 May 2021, Ibiza was promoted for the first time ever to Segunda División by defeating UCAM Murcia in the final of the promotion play-off, via an Ekain Zenitagoia goal from the penalty spot.[8] To compete in the Liga Nacional de Fútbol Profesional, the club became a Sociedad Anónima Deportiva with a starting capital of €700,000.[9] Manager Juan Carlos Carcedo, who led the team to promotion, was dismissed on 18 December following six games without a win;[10] his replacement Paco Jémez saved the team from relegation with a 15th-place finish, which was not enough for Salvo to give him a new contract.[11]

On 28 April 2023, Ibiza were relegated to Primera Federación after being defeated 1–0 at Racing Santander, ending their two-season spell in the second division.[12]
