History

Established in Chittagong, Bangladesh, the club initially competed in the CJKS-CDFA Football League in the port city under the name Bangladesh Boys Club. It later rebranded as Chattogram City FC in 2025, due to another club with the same name being present in the Dhaka. In efforts to enter professional football, under the presidency of Syed Saiful Islam, the club obtained a professional league licence and formed a squad to compete in the second-tier of Bangladeshi football, from the 2025–26 Bangladesh Championship League. The team featured 17 players from Chittagong, alongside several experienced recruits from Dhaka.[2][3][4]

On 26 January 2026, Chattogram City began their Championship League campaign with a 1–0 victory over Suktara Jubo Sangsad at the Bashundhara Kings Arena, with Didarul Islam Soinik scoring the decisive goal.[5]
