History
In June 2020, a possible move of Atlante began to be speculated, the team played at home in Cancún, Quintana Roo. On June 26, the relocation of that club back to Mexico City was announced and became official.[4] The same day, the relocation of Cafetaleros de Chiapas was announced, and the team was transferred from Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas to Cancún, Quintana Roo and renamed as Cancún F.C.[5]
On June 30 2020, the club appointed Argentine footballer Christian Giménez as its first manager.[6]
In January 2022, the team was bought by an investment fund headed by Mexican-American businessman Jeff Luhnow. However, due to regulatory issues, José Luis Orantes remained in the presidency until the end of the 2021–22 season.[2] On June 1, 2022, the sale was approved by the owners of the Liga de Expansión MX clubs, making the entry of the new owner official.[7]
