Fútbol Club Jumilla is a Spanish football team based in Jumilla, in the autonomous community of Murcia. Founded in 1975 and reformed in 2011, it plays in Segunda División B – Group 4, holding home matches at Estadio Municipal de La Hoya.
In 2011, as a replacement to dissolved Jumilla CF, the club bought the place of Moratalla CF in Tercera División in the following year and was immediately included in the fourth level for the 2012–13 campaign. On 1 June 2015, after finishing first in its group, Jumilla was promoted to Segunda División B after defeating FC Ascó in the play-offs.
In June 2016, Jumilla was taken over by Chinese famous football commentators Li Xiang and Tang Hui together with Argentinian partner Rubén Iglesias. Jumilla's game against Lorca FC in November 2016 was dubbed 'the Shanghai Derby' as both Li and Tang are from Shanghai, as is Lorca's owner - the former Chinese international player and manager Xu Genbao.
