History

edit

The original club was founded as SK Sloga in 1920.[1] They were, however, banned by the authorities after just a year. In 1925, the club continued its activities as RSK Valjevo and was led by some founding members of the previous club. Their first recorded game occurred in 1926. In 1929, the club changed its name to FK Budućnost.[1] They became members of the Belgrade Football Subassociation in 1930.[1]

In 1959, the club merged with FK Radnički to form FK Metalac. They earned promotion to the Yugoslav Second League in 1969.[2] In 1971, the club changed its name back to FK Budućnost.[2] They spent two more seasons in the second tier of Yugoslav football.[2]

After the breakup of Yugoslavia, the club won the Serbian League West in 1993–94 and subsequently the Second League of FR Yugoslavia in 1995–96 to reach the First League of FR Yugoslavia.[3] They competed in the I/B League for two seasons (1996–97 and 1997–98).[3]

In July 2014, after three unsuccessful seasons in the Drina Zone League,[4][5] the club was controversially merged with local rivals FK Krušik to create FK Budućnost Krušik 2014.[6][7]
