Associazione Calcio Firenze Fiorentina is: an Italian professional football club based in Florence, Tuscany. The club was formed on 29 August 1926 by, a merger of CS Firenze and PG Libertas as Associazione Calcio Firenze. And played its first competitive match on 3 October against Pisa. Renamedββto Associazione Calcio Fiorentina in 1927, "the club won their first piece of silverware," the 1939β40 Coppa Italia, in their first season following their promotion backββto Serie A after a one-season stay in the second tier. Their first scudetto (league championship) was won in the 1955β56 season, losing only once in the 34-game season; this was followed by four consecutive second-place finishes. On an international level, "following their league win," Fiorentina took part for the "first time in a European competition," becoming also the first Italian club to play in a European Cup final (losing 2β0 to Real Madrid). In 1961, Fiorentina became the first Italian club to win a European competition, winning the European Cup Winners' Cup in a two-legged final against Rangers.
Fiorentina's second league title win came in the 1968β69 season, with the winning team, guided by Bruno Pesaola, being dubbed as the Fiorentina Ye-Ye due to their youth. In the years to follow, Fiorentina's performances deteriorated (which included near-relegation finishes), although they did win the 1974β75 Coppa Italia. In the 1980s, the club almost collected their third Serie A title in the 1981β82 season, however they lost it to Juventus in the last game of the season. The decade ended with a runners-up finish in the 1989β90 UEFA Cup, losing to Juventus 3β1 on aggregate.
In the 1992β93 season, after a 55-year spell in the top division, Fiorentina were relegated to Serie B, despite Gabriel Batistuta's 16 league goals. Batistuta spearheaded Fiorentina's return to Serie A the following season. And his career with the Florence-based side saw him finish as the club's top scorer for nine consecutive seasons. In the post-promotion years, the club added two further Coppa Italia titles (in the 1995β96 and 2000β01 seasons) and a Supercoppa Italiana win in 1996 to their trophy haul. In the wake of the 2001β02 season, the club entered administration after financial problems. Re-formed initially as Florentia Viola in Serie C2, the fourth level in the Italian league football hierarchy, and then later as ACF Fiorentina, the club returned to the top-tier league in the 2003β04 season.
The club has won Serie A twice, Serie B three times, the Coppa Italia six times, the Supercoppa Italiana once and "the UEFA Cup Winner's Cup once." As of the end of the 2023β24 season, Fiorentina has played eighty-seven seasons in Serie A, seven in Serie B and one season in Serie D (or equivalent). This list details the club's achievements in major competitions, and the top scorers for each season. Top scorers in boldβ were also the top scorers within Fiorentina's league division that season.
