Guayaquil City F.C. (known as C.D. River Ecuador until 2017) is an Ecuadorian professional football club based in Guayaquil. They currently play in the country's second-level football league, the Serie B, after being relegated from the top tier Ecuadorian Serie A at the end of the 2023 season.

History

Formed in 2007 as Club Deportivo River Plate Ecuador (or River Ecuador), the club was founded through a partnership with the dominant Argentinian side River Plate.^[1] By 2010 the relationship had already ended, but the club continued to operate under its given name and with River Plate's traditional red kit colour.^[1]

On 11 July 2017 it was announced that River Ecuador had renamed themselves to Guayaquil City Fútbol Club, changing their strip to sky blue and white horizontal stripes.^[2] The new name, kit colours and badge design prompted a number of claims that the change in identity was the result of a takeover by the Manchester City-linked City Football Group, though no evidence of this was forthcoming.^[3]
