FC Santa Coloma
The club
FC Santa Coloma were founded in 1986 by a group of football enthusiasts representing the village of Santa Coloma, in the parish of Andorra la Vella, and were a founding member of Andorra's Primera Divisió when it was established in 1995. The club is chaired by Daniel Milstein, whose acquisition of the club completed in July 2022, and is managed by Víctor Vázquez.
This club is not to be confused with UE Santa Coloma, a separate club from the same village. The two organisations are entirely distinct despite sharing a home settlement: UE Santa Coloma was established as its own entity, also in 1986, and the two have been fierce local rivals ever since in a fixture known as El Derbi Colomenc. The two clubs have contrasting honours boards. FC Santa Coloma is Andorran football's most decorated club domestically, with thirteen Primera Divisió titles won between 1994/95 and 2018/19. UE Santa Coloma, by contrast, had won no Primera Divisió title at all until 2023/24, when it took the league, cup and Andorran Super Cup in the same season for a domestic treble, and went on to become the first Andorran side to reach the play-off round of a UEFA club competition in the 2024/25 Europa League. Both clubs play at the shared Andorra Football Federation stadium facilities, which adds to the potential for confusion between them, but they are separate entities with separate honours, separate ownership and separate playing histories; this dossier concerns FC Santa Coloma only.

Head-to-head notes
The defining fixture for FC Santa Coloma is El Derbi Colomenc against UE Santa Coloma, a rivalry between the two clubs from the same village that intensified from the 2009/10 season onward, when the pair competed directly for the Primera Divisió title. No detailed head-to-head scoreline record between the two clubs was established from the sources read here. In Europe, Penybont of Wales is the closest thing FC Santa Coloma have to a repeat opponent, having been eliminated by the Andorran club in both 2023/24 and 2026/27.
