## History

The predecessor of Đà Nẵng Football Club was the Quang Nam-Đà Nẵng Workers' Football Club, then renamed the Quang Nam-Đà Nẵng Football Club. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Quang Nam-Da Nang was a strong club, culminating in the national championship in 1992, and winning runner-up three times (1987, 1990, 1991). . After that, Da Nang football said goodbye to a series of players and began to decline. In 1997, the team merged with the Đà Nẵng Water Supply Football Club to take the common name Da Nang. By 2001, Da Nang finished runner-up First Division 2000-01 and promoted to professional level for 2023. The team had to be relegated to the Second division.
Before the season V-League 2008, Đà Nẵng Football Club changed its name to SHB Đà Nẵng Football Club after the Department of Sports and Physical Training of Da Nang City transferred the team to SHB Bank.
A year later, a few days before the V-League 2009 kicked off, the club officially converted its operating model into a Sports Joint Stock Company. SHB Da Nang Sports Joint Stock Company officially launched on February 2 year 2009. With an investment of over 55 billion VND, the season V-League 2009 was a successful season for SHB Đà Nẵng when they won a double national championship and 2009 Vietnamese Cup.
2012 continued to be a successful year for Da Nang football when they won the V-League for the third time after defeating Ninh Bình 3-1 and won the National Super Cup when winning 4–0 against Saigon Xuan Thanh. Besides, SHB Da Nang's fan association also won the best fan association award in those two years.
The season 2015 was one of the worst seasons for coach Le Huynh Duc and his team when they only ranked 9th overall match, ranked right behind QNK Quang Nam. In addition, all of the club's youth teams failed and did not achieve any results. Previously, after failing to win in the first 5 rounds, there were doubts about the position of head coach Le Huynh Duc. This failure was acknowledged by the team's leadership as being due to lack of preparation and investment, poor selection of foreign players, as well as a lack of close attention to the youth ranks when deciding to drop two generations U-11 and U-13 for funding reasons.
Also this season, the club suffered a huge loss when former honorary chairman of the club Nguyen Ba Thanh died on February 13, 2015. To commemorate him, the entire team wore ribbons. funeral in the away match against Dong Tam Long An.
In the season 2016, drawing lessons from the previous season, the club leaders and coaching staff were determined to change the team's blood. When bringing in quality names in the transfer market such as Thanh Hai (from Long An), former captain of
Hoang Anh Gia Lai Le Hoang Thien or former Olympic player Lam Anh Quang (from Nam Dinh). Right after the end of the 2015 season, SHB Da Nang quickly signed a contract with striker Mali Diabate Souleymane from Long An, but only After a few training sessions with the new club, this player had heart problems so the club decided to liquidate the contract ahead of time.As a replacement, the coaching staff invited back former 2011 V-League top scorer Gastón Merlo, in addition to signing a contract with player Jamaica Horace James from the Malaysian Super League and naturalized Brazilian player Dinh Van Ta. SHB Da Nang also had time to add an overseas Vietnamese player from the United States, Minh Alva Vu, but because he had not yet completed the procedures for naturalization in Vietnam, this player was registered in phase 2 of the season. Regarding the registration list for 2016, coach Le Huynh Duc was forced to eliminate two national U-23 players, Vo Huy Toan and Ho Ngoc Thang. This season, the club had a very impressive achievement when ranked third with 49 points, only 1 point behind the championship team and Gastón Merlo won the top scorer title for the 4th time with 24 goals. win, the highest in V.League history.
2018 was another failed season for the club, only winning 9th place, with 31 points after 26 rounds. Under the guidance of coach Nguyen Minh Phuong, the team plays very well at home but away from home only draws or loses. Therefore, after the end of the season, coach Nguyen Minh Phuong submitted his resignation and the team's board of directors decided to re-invite coach Le Huynh Duc to lead the team during this difficult period.
In 2019, the team's Board of Directors signed an agreement with Kamito Joint Stock Company (Japan) to sponsor soccer uniforms for the team. This is a huge mark in the professionalization of the club.
In 2020, in round 6 of the V.League at home, despite being scored first by Hoang Anh Gia Lai, the club fought back, winning with a score of 3–1. This is one of the rare teams to defeat HAGL at home since HAGL joined the V.League (2003) with 14 wins, 3 draws (2004, 2013, 2014) and 1 loss (2003).
In the 2023 V.League 1, the team did not perform well and had relegated to the V.League 2 after 22 years of playing in the top flight.
