Wikipedia - Dorados de Sinaloa

Club Deportivo Dorados de Sinaloa, commonly known as Dorados, is a Mexican professional football club that competes in Liga de Expansión MX, the second tier of Mexican football. It serves as a reserve team for Tijuana. In September 2024, the club was relocated to Tijuana, Baja California and has since played its home matches at Estadio Caliente.

Dorados was founded in August 2003, in the Primera División A and secured promotion to Mexico's top flight just one year later. In 2016, the club was relegated and has since competed in the Liga de Expansión.

History

First promotion and relegation

Dorados was founded on August 8, 2003, in the Primera División 'A', the second tier of the Mexican football system. On December 20, they won their first title in the Apertura 2003 tournament, with Guadalupe Castañeda scoring the decisive goal against Cobras de Juárez in the final. In the following tournament, Dorados finished as runners-up.

On May 29, 2004, Dorados secured promotion to the Primera División after defeating León in the promotion play-off. Remarkably, the club achieved top-flight status just one year after its founding. In an effort to remain in the top division, Dorados made several high-profile signings, including Sebastián Abreu, Pep Guardiola and Jared Borgetti. However, after two years in the Primera División, Dorados was relegated following the Apertura 2006 tournament.

Dorados claimed the title in the Clausura 2007 tournament, which allowed them to participate in the promotion play-off, but ultimately fell to Puebla. In October 2012, Dorados emerged as the Copa Mx champion following their victory over Correcaminos in the final.

In May 2013, Grupo Caliente, known for its casino operations, acquired a majority ownership in the club.

Return to Primera División and Relegation

On May 23, 2015, Dorados once again secured promotion to Mexico's top flight after defeating Necaxa in the promotion play-off. However, just a year later, they were relegated after finishing at the bottom of the relegation table.

Dorados secured the Apertura 2016 title, earning a spot in the promotion play-off, but were ultimately defeated by Lobos BUAP.

In September 2018, Diego Maradona was appointed head coach of Dorados. He made his debut on 17 September with a 4–1 victory over Cafetaleros de Tapachula. Maradona guided Dorados to two consecutive finals, though they fell short in both, losing to Atlético San Luis. In June 2019, Maradona's lawyer announced that he would be stepping down from the role, citing health reasons.

Liga de Expansión

In the spring of 2020, Ascenso MX was restructured into Liga de Expansión MX, a competition designed to foster the development of young footballers. Following this change, Dorados began functioning as a reserve team for both Tijuana and Querétaro, as all three clubs are owned by the same group.

In September 2024, the team was relocated to Tijuana due to concerns about the public safety situation in Sinaloa.

The Dorados de Sinaloa, commonly known as Dorados, is a professional soccer team based in Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico. Founded in 2003, the team has established itself as a prominent club in Mexican football, competing primarily in the Ascenso MX (the second tier of Mexican football). Known for their passionate fan base and resilient playing style, Dorados has gained recognition for developing talented players and fostering a strong community presence. The team’s nickname, "Los Dorados," reflects their golden-colored kit and symbolizes their pursuit of excellence on the pitch. Over the years, Dorados has become a symbol of regional pride and a stepping stone for players aspiring to reach higher levels in Mexican and international football.
