FK Rad (Serbian Cyrillic:ФК Рад) is afootball club based inBanjica,Belgrade,Serbia. They compete in theBelgrade First League, the fifth tier of thenational league system.
Founded in 1958, the club spent a total of 30 seasons in the top flight between1987 and2021, including five seasons in theYugoslav First League, 12 seasons in theFirst League of Serbia and Montenegro, and 13 seasons in theSerbian SuperLiga.
The club was founded on 10 March 1958 by GP Rad, a local construction company. They acquired the league rights from FK Razvitak, a small club based inBanjica, going on to compete in the local leagues of Belgrade until the early 1970s. The club earned promotion to theYugoslav Second League in 1973,[1] spending the next 14 seasons in the second tier of Yugoslav football. They also reached the1981–82 Yugoslav Cup quarter-finals, losing toDinamo Zagreb.[2]
In the1986–87 Yugoslav Second League, the club became champions in Group East and took promotion to theYugoslav First League for the first time in history.[3] They placed 15th in theirdebut appearance in the top flight, just one point above the relegation zone.[3] The club subsequently finished in fourth place in the1988–89 season, earning a spot in the1989–90 UEFA Cup.[4] They were eliminated in the first round after losing 3–2 on aggregate toOlympiacos.[5]
Following thedissolution of SFR Yugoslavia, the club continued to compete at the highest national level, finishing fifth in the inaugural1992–93 First League of FR Yugoslavia.[6] They would also place in the top five in three consecutive seasons from1998 to2000. With the beginning of the new millennium, the club slowly started to decline and eventually suffered relegation in the2002–03 season.[7] They returned to the top flight of Serbia and Montenegro football in itsfinal edition, but were promptly relegated.[8]
Having spent two seasons in theSerbian First League, the club placed fourth in2007–08 and managed to earn promotion to theSerbian SuperLiga via the play-offs.[9] They tied their highest-ever fourth-place finish in2010–11, which earned them qualification for the2011–12 UEFA Europa League, to return to European football after 22 years. After spending 13 consecutive seasons in the top flight, the club suffered relegation in2021.[10] They would subsequently end bottom of the table in the2022–23 Serbian First League, dropping to the third tier for the first time in 50 years.
After suffering a second consecutive relegation in 2024, the club found itself in theBelgrade Zone League, the fourth tier of Serbian football. They were also banned from registering any new players during the 2024–25 season due to outstanding debts. As a result, the club was unable to prevent a third successive relegation, losing all of its games, except for two forfeited wins, and conceding 170 goals to drop to theBelgrade First League.
