History
Linares Deportivo was founded in 2009 under the name of Asociación Deportiva Linares, as a replacement for dissolved CD Linares.[3]
The club first reached the fourth division three years later, despite finishing second in the fifth level.[4] In 2014–15, after winning its group, Linares defeated CD Castellón 3–0 on aggregate to win promotion to Segunda División B.[5]
In doing so, Linares qualified for the first time to the Copa del Rey for the following season. They defeated FC Jumilla 2–1 at home in the first round on 2 September 2015, then lost by the same score at UD Logroñés.[6][7] On 28 May 2017, the team dropped back to the fourth tier after a 2–1 aggregate loss to Burgos CF in the play-offs.[8]
