History
They took over the Ingenio Villanueva franchise to play in the Honduran second division from the 2013 Clausura.[1] They were named Atlético Nacional after being bought by a Colombian company.[2] Ingenio Villanueva were promoted to the second tier themselves in summer 2012, after Pablo Zapata scored a hattrick to beat Merendón 3–1 in the second leg of the Liga Mayor championship final.[3]
