FK Ljuboten (Macedonian: ФК Љуботен) is a football club based in Tetovo, North Macedonia. They are currently competing in the Macedonian Third League (West Division).

History

[edit]

Founded in 1919, FK Ljuboten is the oldest club in North Macedonia.[1] FK Ljuboten was based in northern Tetovo, built and supported by the locals. The name was derived from the mountain peak of the Šar Mountains, Ljuboten. Through most of the football period under both the Kingdom and Socialist Yugoslavia, the club relied on local talent and were funded by the locals and the city of Tetovo. For the 100th birthday of the club, they joined the Club of Pioneers.

Rivalry

[edit]

FK Ljuboten's rival is FK Teteks. The rivalry reflected the social and class differences of the respective club's supporters. Ljuboten's supporters are only the citizens of Tetovo, predominantly of Macedonians.[2] Teteks supporters were the working class, as the club was founded by the Teteks company and had supporters from Macedonians in Tetovo and all around North Macedonia.
