Club Deportivo Unionistas de Salamanca Club de Fútbol is a Spanish football club based in Salamanca, in the autonomous community of Castile and León. Founded in 2013, it currently plays in Primera Regional.

History

After UD Salamanca's dissolution, a group of supporters founded Unionistas de Salamanca Club de Fútbol, a fan-based club created mainly to preserve UDS' memory.[1] After the club's creation, people like Vicente del Bosque[2] and Dani Rovira[3] became associates.

On 2 September 2014 Unionistas was inscribed in Primera Provincial de Salamanca, the sixth level of Spanish football.[4] A day later it played their first official match, a 0–1 friendly loss against UD Santa Marta.[5]

Unionistas achieved promotion to Primera Regional in April 2015, after defeating Real Salamanca Monterrey.[6] Just one year later, it promoted to Tercera División by beating CD Onzonilla.
