In 2004 the club was refounded acquiring the Serie D sports title of Cisco Calcio of Rome.

Lupa Roma

In the season 2013-14 the club moved to Rome changing its name to A.S.D. Lupa Roma, and playing the home matches in nearby Fiumicino. In the next season it was promoted to Lega Pro as Girone G champions, changing its name again to Lupa Roma F.C. as a sign of return to the professional ranks after a 34-season absence. The team had to also move its home in Aprilia due to the Fiumicino field being unfit for professional league games, and the immediate lack of an available venue in Rome.
