Football Club Bekasi City or FC Bekasi City is an Indonesian football club based in Bekasi, West Java that competes in Liga 2 and play their home match at Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium.[1]
In 2014, Putra Ijen FC was established in Jember. The club was established in order to participate in Liga 3 East Java.[2][3]
In 2018, Putra Sinar Giri FC began participating in the East Java League 3 competition after buying a license from the club from Jember, Putra Ijen FC. The club moved its base from Jember to Gresik. PSG Gresik then promptly joined Liga 3 East Java in 2018.[4] They won Liga 3 East Java for the first time in their history after beating Perseta Tulungagung 5–3 in penalty shootout.[5]
In 2020, PSG Pati began participating in Liga 2 after Saiful Arifin bought the club's license from Gresik, Putra Sinar Giri FC. The club then moved its base to Pati.[6][7]
In 2021, Atta Halilintar and Putra Siregar bought the majority stake of PSG Pati and changed the club's name to AHHA PS Pati.[8] The club then participated in 2021–22 Liga 2 and barely avoided relegation back to Liga 3.
In 2022, they decided to move their homebase from Pati to Bekasi and rebranded the club as Bekasi FC.[9] For next season, Bekasi FC will use the Patriot Candrabhaga Stadium, hoping that the new homebase can make the club more successful.[10]
However, the name Bekasi FC has been trademarked by a man named Erick, who promptly filed a lawsuit regarding the usage of the Bekasi FC brand.[11] This forced the club to change their name once again into FC Bekasi City, which was ratified in the 2022 PSSI Ordinary Congress.[12]
