This is a complete list of Italian Football Championship clubs from the first season in 1898 to the present day.
In 1929 FIGC changed the mechanism of the championship, and created the Serie A as we know it today (a single league with 16, 18 or 20 teams).
The list of clubs of the Serie A from its inception to the present season, sorted by the number of seasons a club played in the league.
There are 68 teams representing 62 cities that have taken part in 92 Serie A championships in a single round that was played from the 1929âÂÂ30 season until the 2024âÂÂ25 season. Milan, Turin, Genoa, Rome and Verona are the five cities that hosted derbies. Internazionale is the only team that has played Serie A football in every season. The teams in bold compete in Serie A currently.
16 of these teams actually play in Serie B and 20 belong to the Serie C, while the remaining 11 clubs lost their professional status.
56 out of the 62 cities that host past Serie A clubs are present-day provincial capitals, while 6 not. Consequently, 56 out the 107 provinces of Italy were represented in Serie A in their history, while 51 not yet.

(*) Audace San Michele and Pellizzari Arzignano retired after two matches.
This championship is not usually included in the statistics, because some of the southern sides that took part to the competition were Serie B teams, while northern Serie B teams played at the second level with the Serie C teams. Torino's scudetto is considered official.
