Municipal Liberia

Asociación Deportiva Municipal Liberia is a Costa Rican professional football club based in Liberia, Guanacaste. They currently compete in the Liga FPD and play their home matches at the Estadio Edgardo Baltodano Briceño.

Founded on June 7, 1977, the club began in the second division after purchasing the franchise of Deportivo Fertica. After decades of fluctuating between the second and third divisions, the club finally achieved promotion to the Costa Rican Primera División in 2001.

In 2007, businessman Mario Sotela purchased the club, rebranding it as Liberia Mía. Heavy investment in veteran talent led the team to its first-ever Primera División title in Verano 2009, defeating Herediano 3–0 in the final. However, financial instability led to multiple rebrandings, and the team was eventually expelled by UNAFUT in March 2011 due to mounting debts.

In mid-2011, the club was refounded as Los Coyotes del Municipal Liberia after acquiring the franchise of AD Desamparados. The club returned to the top flight for the 2015–2016 season and most recently earned promotion again in 2023.

The stadium was built in 1970 and is owned by the Municipality of Liberia. It underwent major renovations in 2013 to serve as a host venue for the 2014 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. It has a capacity of 6,500 spectators.
