Levante began celebrating its 115th anniversary this Friday by officially setting September 6, 1909, as the club's founding date. Emilio Nadal, the head of Levante's historical heritage department, explained that there are historical references to the club playing its first match on that date. In 1909, Levante was part of all social and sports movements in València. That summer, there was a national competition, and it was the first regulated and friendly competition, and Levante participated. Emilio Nadal emphasized that there are press articles from September 7, 1909, that already mention Levante. The club's counselor and spokesperson, Maribel Vilaplana, outlined some of the events planned to celebrate the 115th anniversary. Coach Julián Calero will participate in a dinner with the members of the Delegación de Peñas, and the club will place a large banner with the 115 most emblematic players in Levante's history on the main facade of the Ciutat de València stadium. The initial date set for the inauguration of the Ciutat de València was September 6, 1969, but it was postponed to September 9 due to scheduling conflicts with various personalities who had to attend the event. The numbers 115, for the anniversary, and 1909, the year of Levante's founding, will be linked to various actions during the season with the fans. Levante has put commemorative shirts on sale for the birthday. The club's board of directors plans to meet this Friday to analyze the transfer market and to seek solutions in all areas of the economy so that Levante can continue to breathe easily.
