Source-derived summary

Valdesoto Club de Fútbol is a Spanish football club based in Valdesoto, Siero, in the autonomous community of Asturias.

History

Founded in 1961, Valdesoto played most of their years in the first tier of the Asturian regional leagues. Its colors, red and blue, were chosen to avoid problems with the local fans of Sporting de Gijón and Real Oviedo, the two main teams in Asturias. In its second season, the club achieved the title of the old Copa Federación and its first promotion arrived in 1964.

In 1993, Valdesoto promoted for the first time to Tercera División thanks to the promotion of UP Langreo to Segunda División B.

After its relegation in 2002, Valdesoto played always in Regional Preferente until 2017, when it promoted again to Tercera, like in the first time, thanks to the promotion of an Asturian team to the third tier, this time Sporting de Gijón B.

Valdesoto only could remain in Tercera one season, but two years after their relegation, the club promoted again to Tercera División. It did it after the suspension of the league due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as football club. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5495251. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1961, 1964, 1993 and 2002.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
