History

Foundation and first seasons

In March 2007, under the initiative of his father Vladimir, NSA student Vassil Petrov established a football academy in Sofia. In 2010, after three consecutive years of growth, the academy formed a men's team and registered it with the Bulgarian Football Union.[1] Officially named FC Sofia 2010, "the citizens", as they are known, played in the regional divisions until 2015, when the club attained first place in their group and gained promotion to the V AFG after defeating Sokol (Benkovski) in the play-off.[2] At the half season team was on the last place of V Group with only 6 points.

2015–present: Manolov era

In December 2015, the club was taken over by former CSKA Sofia administrator and Tsarsko Selo founder Stoyne Manolov, who appointed former Bulgarian international Todor Yanchev as manager and announced an ambitious goal of reaching second division in the coming years. The team merged with Tsarsko Selo and from 2016-17 season could take Tsarsko Selo name.[3][4]
