Club histories

US Mondorf-les-Bains

Also written as Mondorf.

The club

The club's full and official name is Union Sportive Mondorf-les-Bains, commonly written US Mondorf-les-Bains; it is not FC Mondorf-les-Bains, and the FC form does not correspond to a real, separately existing club as far as the sources read here show. The search for a similarly named rival came up empty: no other club called Mondorf, no differently branded predecessor, and no second-team or reserve side playing under a related name in a lower Luxembourg division was established from the sources read here. The commune of Mondorf-les-Bains, a spa town in southeastern Luxembourg, does not appear to host any other senior football club of note, and a place called Mondorf in the Niederkassel area of western Germany was checked and has no football club associated with it in the sources read here. This dossier is about the Luxembourg spa-town club playing in the BGL Ligue, and about no other entity.

US Mondorf-les-Bains were founded on 1 January 1915, originating as a youth club before developing a senior team. The club plays in green and white, and its home ground is the Stade John Grün in Mondorf-les-Bains, with a capacity given as 3,600 in one source and 3,500 in another. The club describes itself as the largest sports organisation in its municipality, with more than 400 members. The head coach is the German Martin Forkel; the club president is Christian Strasser, from Luxembourg. The most-capped player is given as Ahmed Benhemine with 215 appearances, and the club's recorded top scorer is Amine Nabli with 31 goals.

Recent seasons

Mondorf were promoted to the Division Nationale for the first time in 1966 after winning the Promotion d'Honneur, then relegated back to the second division in 1970-71. They did not return to the top flight until 2014, winning a promotion play-off after a 43-year absence. Since re-establishing themselves in the National Division from the 2014-15 season, the club's more recent form has trended upward rather than yo-yoing: ninth place with 38 points in 2023-24, seventh place with 53 points in 2024-25, and third place with 60 points from 30 matches in 2025-26, a record of 19 wins, 3 draws and 8 defeats, 51 goals scored and 24 conceded. That third-place finish carried a European qualifying place. Earlier seasons in the current spell, including 2015-16 when the club reached the Luxembourg Cup final, were not itemised in full from the sources read here beyond that cup run.

Honours and landmarks

Mondorf's principal domestic landmark is a Luxembourg Cup final appearance in 2015-16, in which they lost 1-0 to F91 Dudelange at the Stade Josy Barthel on 29 May 2016; no Luxembourg Cup win by the club was established from the sources read here. On the way to that final they beat US Hostert 2-1 away in the fifth round, RFCUL 2-0 at home in the quarter-finals, and CS Fola Esch 1-0 in the semi-final. The 43-year gap between their first relegation from the top flight in 1970-71 and their return in 2014 is the other notable landmark in the club's history, alongside the 2025-26 third-place league finish that brought their first competitive European qualification.
