Fudbalski klub Trepča (Serbian Cyrillic: Фудбалски клуб Трепча) is a Serbian football club based in North Mitrovica, in North Kosovo. Despite being located in the Kosovo, the club plays in the Serbian football league system, currently in the Morava Zone League, Serbia's fourth football league. The club was founded in 1932.
After the Kosovo war, many of the Kosovo Albanian players left the Serbian club FK Trepča and decided to found their own club, which was carried out in 1999. The Albanian club received the name KF Trepça, the Albanian name for FK Trepča, thus there were two clubs in the city with virtually the same name. In 2010, the Serbian FK Trepča merged with the local Serbian club FK Partizan Kosovska Mitrovica and integrated with it.
The football club Trepča was named after the former Trepča Mines, which are located north-east of Kosovska Mitrovica. It was first known as FK Rudar Kosovska Mitrovica until 1962 when it was named FK Trepča.
The club was founded in 1932 under the name Trepča by workers of the Trepča Mines in Kosovska Mitrovica during the period of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. From the founding year until 1938, the club did not have an own venue, so coached and played on a playing field in the neighboring town Zvečan. In 1938, a small field was built where they played until the Second World War. Later they received its own stadium, the Trepča Stadium, which offered then about 30,000 spectators. The players that marked the pre-WWII period were Mazllum Grushti, Hasko Bula, Gota Sezair, Ejup Kerveshi, Adnan Mustafa, Ahmed and Qamil Zajmi, Hysen Murati, Xhati Zhubi, Sali Pllana, Bedri Hamza, Shinasi Rizanolli, Ahmet Shukriu, Burhan Kurkuqi, Jakup Berisha, Qazim Pllana, Sami Konjusha, Agim Deva, Ekrem Neziri, Riza Gashi, etc. Gota Cezair was a Prizren-born player who, after playing with Trepča, went to Italy to study Economy at the University of Firenze, and, while there, he played for Carrarese Calcio. and later returned to Yugoslavia and played with FK Vardar in Yugoslav First and Second Leagues.
