Club Deportivo Universidad de Zaragoza was a Spanish football club based in Zaragoza, in the autonomous community of Aragon. Founded in 1993 as an independent club, it became Real Zaragoza's second reserve team between 2001 and 2010, and was dissolved in 2012.
History
The club was founded in 1993 after the merger of CD Universitario (founded in 1966) and AD Porcell (founded in 1974) under the name of CD Universitario Porcell. Renamed CD Universidad de Zaragoza in 1999, the club reached an agreement with Real Zaragoza to become their second reserve team (behind Real Zaragoza B) in 2001.
In 2010, the affiliation agreement between Zaragoza and Universidad ended, with Universidad only becoming a partner club. In 2012, after the club's financial crisis, they had to give up from playing in Tercera División, taking over the reserve team's place in Segunda Regional; in the following year, the club cut all associations with the University of Zaragoza, being refounded as CD Hispanidad.
