Mexicali F.C. is a Mexican professional football team based in Mexicali, Baja California that plays in the Liga Premier de México.

History

[edit]

The team was announced in October 2021, although the name or identity it would hold was unknown.[3] In the first half of 2022, more details about the club began to be known, including the name, nickname, colors and the stadium they would use.[1]

On July 1, 2022, the team's participation in the Liga Premier – Serie A was confirmed.[4] Mexicali F.C. is the first team in the city to participate in the Mexican Second Division.

On June 27, 2025 Mexicali F.C. was relocated to Toluca and temporarily renamed Dragones Toluca F.C. because the team was left without adequate sports facilities for its continuity in Mexicali, since the club's stadium was subject to remodeling works.[5] However, the team plans to return to Mexicali when its stadium is fully operational.
