Valencia Club de Fútbol, commonly known as Valencia, is a Spanish football club based in the city of Valencia. Founded in 1919, the club has a rich history and is one of the most successful clubs in Spanish football. Valencia has won the La Liga title on six occasions, with their most recent triumph coming in the 2003-2004 season. They have also won the Copa del Rey on eight occasions, the most recent being in the 2018-2019 season. Valencia's home venue is the Mestalla Stadium, which has a seating capacity of over 48,000 spectators. The club is often referred to as "Los Che," a nickname derived from the Valencian word for "the lads." One interesting fact about Valencia is that they reached back-to-back UEFA Champions League finals in 2000 and 2001, narrowly missing out on the trophy on both occasions. Additionally, the club has a strong youth academy, known as the Valencia CF Academy, which has produced several talented players over the years.
