CF Extremadura

CF Extremadura was founded in 1924 in Almendralejo, in the autonomous community of Extremadura, and spent its early decades in the regional leagues before reaching La Liga for the first time in 1996. The club played its home games at Estadio Francisco de la Hera, which opened on 12 October 1951 and was rebuilt in 1996 with a seated capacity of 11,580. Its most notable spell came in the late 1990s, when the club spent two seasons in the top flight under managers Josu Ortuondo and Rafael Benítez. Financial problems led to relegations through the 2000s, and the club was dissolved in August 2010 by its major shareholder, the Almendralejo City Hall.
