US Salernitana 1919 (SAL)
Overview
US Salernitana 1919 represents the club from Salerno in Campania, southern Italy region. Founded in 1919, the Campanian club possesses centenary history marked by ups and downs between divisions. The Granata (Garnets) play at the Estadio Arechi, a 37,000-capacity venue perched on Salerno's heights offering spectacular view of the gulf and constituting one of Italy's finest arenas.
Salernitana's history experiences its most glorious moment with the historic 2021 Serie A return after 23 years of absence. This ascension mobilized the entire city in exceptional fervor, the Granata returning to the Italian calcio elite and facing the country's biggest clubs. This return symbolizes the resilience of a club that never abandoned its dream of returning to the summit.
Salernitana embodies Campanian passion with a loyal and fervent supporter base. The club relies on an ambitious project aiming to remain in Serie A and establish itself sustainably in the Italian elite. The Granata maintain regional rivalries with Naples and other southern clubs, confrontations that mobilize all Campania. The objective is to confirm this historic return and perpetuate the tradition of a centenary club deeply rooted in its Mediterranean city and region.
