'''Calcio Foggia 1920''', commonly referred to as '''Foggia''', is an [[Football in Italy|Italian football]] club based in [[Foggia]], [[Apulia]]. It currently plays in [[Serie C]], having last been in the top level [[Serie A]] in 1995.

 

 

On 23 April 2017, the club regained promotion to [[Serie B]] after a 19-year absence, but folded again only two years later, to restart from [[Serie D]] in 2019 as Calcio Foggia.
