Motril Club de Fútbol was a Spanish football team based in Motril, Granada, in the autonomous community of Andalusia. Founded in 1984 and dissolved in 2012, it held home matches at Estadio Escribano Castilla, with a capacity of 4,400 seats.

History

Motril first reached the third division in 1997, remaining six consecutive seasons in the category. In 2001–02 it inclusively finished the regular season in first position (in group IV), but lost in the promotion playoffs against Getafe CF, 0–1 on aggregate.

From 2003–12, Motril competed again in the fourth level, appearing in the promotion playoffs on five occasions, always without success. In July 2012 the team folded, due to heavy debts and financial difficulties.^[1]
