Extremadura Unión Deportiva Femenino, formerly known asCF Puebla Extremadura and later asExtremadura Femenino CF, was a Spanish women football club fromAlmendralejo.
Also known asClub Irex Puebla for sponsorship reasons from 2005, the team gradually declined through the 2000s, and suffering from financial strain in 2008 it merged withAD Las Mercedes to form Extremadura FCF, moving to Almendralejo. In the 2008–09 season the team collapsed, ending second to last in the table and being thus relegated. With the championship's expansion for the following season Extremadura applied for a place in 2009 and 2010, but it was denied it both times.[2] Several of its former players played in the premier championship forSPC Llanos de Olivenza, which took its place asExtremadura's powerhouse.
On 15 July 2017, Extremadura Femenino would be integrated into the structure ofExtremadura UD.[3] In 2020, the partnership ended and the club returned to their previous name ofExtremadura Femenino CF.
