Genoa CFC

Founded on 7 September 1893 as the Genoa Cricket and Athletic Club by British residents, and originally closed to Italians, the club added football in 1897 and is the oldest still playing in Italy. Genoa won nine Italian championships, the last in 1924, and retains the English spelling of the city's name. The Stadio Luigi Ferraris, opened in 1911, is the oldest ground in continuous use in Italy.
