F.C. Copenhagen in European football

F.C. Copenhagen (Danish: FC København) is a Danish football club based in the nation's capital city, Copenhagen. Formed in 1992 as the result of a merger between Kjøbenhavns Boldklub and Boldklubben 1903, the club has competed in UEFA competition in all but one season of its existence. Their best seasons came in the 2010–11 UEFA Champions League, when they became the first Danish team to reach the round of 16 in the competition, and the 2023–24 Champions League, when they reached the last 16 for a second time. They also reached the quarter-finals of the 2019–20 UEFA Europa League, the first time they had reached that stage of any UEFA competition.
