As a traditional powerhouse in Spanish football, Oviedo has competed in La Liga for multiple seasons and achieved third place in La Liga three times in the 1930s and 1960s, creating the club's best historical record.
In the early 21st century, the club faced a financial crisis and was relegated to the fourth tier of Spanish football, undergoing a difficult rebuilding process. In recent years, the team has gradually recovered, and in 2025, it successfully returned to La Liga through the promotion playoffs, ending a 24-year absence from the top league. The club has seen legendary strikers like Langara, who remains the holder of several scoring records despite being a three-time La Liga top scorer. Despite often oscillating between La Liga and Segunda División, Real Oviedo has always maintained a strong regional identity and a loyal fan base.
