FK RFS (FC RFS) is a professional Latvian football club based in Riga. The club competes in Virslīga, the top tier of the Latvian football league system.
Founded in 2005, the club has worn a blue home kit and a white away kit since its inception. Since the start of playing in the Latvian higher league, RFS played their home matches in Jānis Skredelis' Stadium for almost 6 years, before moving to LNK Sporta Parks in the summer of 2022.
The club has been crowned as Latvian champions thrice in 2021, 2023 and 2024, and has also won the Latvian cup on three occasions – in 2019, 2021 and 2024. RFS were named as the Best Sports Club in Riga of the year 2022. In 2022, RFS became only the 2nd Latvian club to qualify for European group stages since FK Ventspils in the 2009/10 season, after beating Linfield in a play-off tie.
History
Origins
Until 2003, the current club was a team of boys born in 1990 and 1991 under the auspices of JFK Skonto, the youth club of the Latvian powerhouse FK Skonto, led by Vladimirs Beļajevs. In 2003 Beļajevs quit JFK Skonto together with his students and founded the Daugava Football Sports School (Futbola sporta skola Daugava, FSK Daugava).
Two years later, on 19 May 2005, the semi-professional football club FSK Daugava 90 was established. The new club was built around players born from 1989 to 1999. In 2007 the club enrolled in the Latvian First League in 2007 and changed their name to FK Daugava before the 2008 season. The team won promotion to the Latvian Higher League in 2008, but was relegated the next year.
In 2011, the club's name was changed to Rīgas futbola skola – the same name originally used by the unrelated Riga Football School youth academy, founded in 1962 and owned by the Riga City Council (the senior team of which currently plays in the Latvian Third League).
In 2015, Rīgas futbola skola ranked 3rd in the 1. līga, which was not enough to return to the Virslīga. However, in early 2016 the Latvian Football Federation revoked the league licence of Skonto FC and awarded it to the club, which re-branded itself simply to RFS and returned to the top flight once again.
The settling in (2016–2017)
The new club had new management as its general sponsor became the LNK Group, run by the Latvian businessman Artjoms Milovs. He became the club's president. Learning that they were going to play in the higher league less than a month before the new season began, the club had to act fast by bringing in experienced players, mostly from Skonto FC. The most notable arrivals were center-back Ritus Krjauklis from FK Ventspils and forward Aleksejs Višņakovs. With completely new management and identity, RFS started their first official season in the Virsliga and finished 6th, just 5 points ahead of the relegation play-off spot. Over the course of the season, RFS won 9, drew 8, and lost 11 games, scoring only 22 goals, which was the 2nd lowest result in the league. RFS also secured their place in the 2016–17 Latvian Cup quarterfinal after a 7–0 victory over FK Ogre. During the season, RFS changed their manager twice, but at the end decided to go with Jurijs Ševļakovs.
In the 2017 season, Andrejs Kaļiņins took over as RFS brought in more new faces, including former Watford and CSKA Moscow midfielder Aleksandrs Cauņa, Liepaja's Roberts Savaļnieks, and Georgian defender Lasha Shergelashvili. They also permanently signed the club's top scorer from last season – Igors Kozlovs. Ritus Krjauklis left after just one season alongside Raivis Jurkovskis, whose loan deal at RFS had ended. But in their place came more promising players, as well as young Latvian stars like Roberts Uldriķis and Marko Regža.
On the opening matchday, RFS defeated the title holders Jūrmalas Spartaks 2–1 thanks to Roberts Uldriķis' debut brace. RFS proved to be the underdogs that year as they finished 5th in the league, just off the Europa League qualification spot, after not winning against FK Jelgava on the final matchday.
In the 2016–17 Latvian Cup, once again thanks to Roberts Uldriķis, RFS managed to beat FK Metta 1–0 to advance into the semi-final, but suffered a defeat in a two-legged tie (1–2) to FK Ventspils after Aleksejs Višņakovs did not convert the penalty kick in the dying minutes of the match in the 2nd leg.
Just 2 months later, the 2017 Latvian Cup kicked off, in which RFS managed to reach the semi-final, but this time fell 4–1 to FK Liepāja.
The first glance at silverware (2018–2020)
On 6 December 2017, RFS appointed the former Vilnius Žalgiris head coach Valdas Dambrauskas. RFS won the Virsliga pre-season tournament, which included all Virsliga clubs. They managed to defeat FK Ventspils in the quarters, FK Jelgava in the semis, and FK Spartaks in the final. In terms of the regular season, RFS recorded their highest league finish to date, finishing 3rd, only behind the eventual champions Riga FC and FK Ventspils, meaning that they would participate in European competition qualifiers for the first time in their history to that point. RFS under Dambrauskas showed very good attacking football, scoring 57 goals in 28 games that season, which was the highest ratio in the league. Players like Roberts Savaļnieks and Roberts Uldriķis played a big part in the system, both making a total of 27 goal contributions throughout the season. However, the signing of Ukrainian forward Maksym Marusych proved to be important as well as the forward scored 15 goals that season. In the Latvian Cup, RFS once again got knocked out in the semi-finals after losing 2–1 to FK Ventspils.
Having had an excellent transfer window, RFS were considered the favorites to win the title in the 2019 season. In the outgoing Kaspars Dubra and Lasha Seregashvili's places came the center-back partnership of Vitālijs Jagodinskis and Nauris Bulvītis from FK Ventspils. Ivorian forward Cedric Kouadio arrived from BFC Daugavpils and from Dambrauskas former team Vilnius Žalgiris midfielders Tomáš Šimkovič and Slavko Blagojević, and forward Tomáš Malec all joined the club as well.
In the summer transfer window, RFS also managed to sign their rival's top scorer for the last two seasons – Serbian striker Darko Lemajič – who managed to score 16 goals in the remaining 19 matches for RFS that season. RFS finished 2nd in the Virsliga, 7 points behind Riga FC. RFS won their first ever title that year, as they defeated FK Jelgava 3–2 in the Latvian Cup final, thanks to an extra-time winner by Tomas Šimkovic.
That same season, RFS also made their debut on the European stage as they faced the Slovenian Cup winners NK Olimpija Ljubljana in the Europa League 1st qualifying round. Despite them being the favorites of this tie, RFS managed to snatch a 3–2 win away in Slovenia after a 93rd minute winner from Tin Vukmanić. However, in the second leg, Olimpija scored twice to advance with an aggregate win of 4–3 and knock RFS out.
In January 2020, RFS extended Dambrauskas’ contract until 2022 and released and sold many regular team players.
Viktors Morozs' era (2020–present)
Just a month after the contract extension, Valdas Dambrauskas left the club for Croatian First Division side HNK Gorica, so the club's new head coach became Valdas Dambrauskas’ assistant coach Viktors Morozs. However, following the COVID-19 breakout, the season in Latvia kicked off in June instead of March, and instead of 4 rounds, 3 were played instead. In the market, RFS saw the signing of Slovenian defender Žiga Lipušček, midfielders Leonel Strumia and Tomislav Šarić, and a young Brazilian prospect forward Emerson Deocleciano on loan from NK Lokomotiva. Players like Maksym Marusych and Vitālijs Jagodinskis also left the club for other Virsliga sides.
Once again, RFS finished 2nd in the league, just 3 points behind the eventual champions Riga FC. RFS also did not succeed in keeping hold of the Latvian Cup after they fell out in the semi-finals to FK Jelgava.
The same went for European competition qualifiers, as once again RFS did not get past the first qualifying round after a 1–0 loss to Serbian side Partizan.
Nevertheless, this was a breakout season for the Brazilian loanee Emerson, who managed to find the back of the net 11 times for RFS, also becoming Virsliga's top scorer that year.
The double (2021)
Following Chinonso Offor's 760k transfer to Chicago Fire, RFS had funds to not only secure the signing of Emerson on a permanent deal ahead of the new season but also players like Lucas Villela, Elvis Stuglis, Petr Mareš, and Alfusainey Jatta, who later played an important part in RFS’ success. Another notable player who left the squad was Latvian winger Jānis Ikaunieks, who joined Finnish side KuPS on a free transfer. Vitālijs Jagodinskis returned from Valmiera after just one season, following a conflict with Valmiera's head coach Tamaz Pertia. Despite starting their season with a 3–2 loss to Valmiera FC, RFS then went on a 12-match unbeaten run, before eventually losing to Valmiera again.
With summer approaching also came the qualifying stages for European club competitions, as RFS faced Faroese side KI Klaksvik in the 1st qualification round, snatching a 6–5 win on aggregate thanks to Tomislav Šarić's winner away from home in extra time. Next up followed Hungarian club Puskas Akademia, which RFS, against all odds, got a 5–0 victory on aggregate.
Belgian giants KAA Gent were next on the schedule. RFS scored two goals inside 30 minutes to shock the Ghelamco Arena crowd. Gent later equalized and, in the return game, earned a 1–0 win (3–2 on aggregate), knocking RFS out of the competition.
The relationship with Gent did not end there for RFS, as just 12 days after the 2nd leg, RFS’ all-time top scorer, Darko Lemajic, left the club and joined the Belgian side on a club's record transfer fee of 900k. The Serbian striker had impressed the Belgian opposition, having scored five goals in six UECL qualification games. With some of these funds, RFS brought in forward Kevin Friesenbichler, Deniss Rakels, and a young Serbian striker Andrej Ilić to hopefully replace him. RFS did not stop in both the league and the cup, as they reached the Latvian Cup final for the second year in a row, this time facing FK Liepaja. And thanks to a single goal from Brazilian midfielder Lucas Villela, RFS lifted the Latvian Cup trophy for the second year in a row.
However, just 3 days later, RFS secured an important win against BFC Daugavpils to stay ahead of the reigning champions Riga FC. With 2 matches left, RFS and Riga FC played each other, which was a game that could have decided 2021 Virsliga title. The game, however, ended in a draw, making the title go down to the final day of the season.
In the last matchday away to Daugavpils, with goals from Andrej Ilić and Tomáš Šimkovič, RFS became the champions of Latvia for the first time in their history, which eventually also completed a continental double.
"Fight for the Dream 2022" – The first appearance on the European stage
The 2022 season arrived with RFS eager to defend their title and make their Champions League qualifying debut.
At the start of the 2022 season, Roberts Savaļnieks’ left RFS for FK Liepāja alongside Leon Strumia. Marko Regža and Lucas Villela were released. Also, captain Tomáš Šimkovič, who was named the best Virsliga player in the 2021 season, left for Austrian side First Vienna.
In the summer window, they brought in experienced Latvian goalkeeper Pāvels Šteinbors, who played a big role for the team later on in the season. With the summer window also came the European competition qualifiers, as RFS were drawn with Finnish champions HJK Helsinki in the Champions League 1st qualifying round. RFS lost the first leg 1–0 away but were able to overcome the deficit in the return leg (2–1). However, HJK managed to equalize and win it on penalties. This elimination made RFS fall to the Conference League qualifiers.
In the Conference League 3rd qualifier round, they were drawn together with Maltese champions Hibernians, and in the 1st leg in Riga, despite the away team going down to 10 men, RFS were unable to take the lead as they eventually conceded, but a goal from Andrej Ilić managed to scrape a late draw.
They lost their opening game in their new training and facility complex, LNK Sporta Parks, 3–2 to relegation candidates SK Super Nova.
With summer came new arrivals. They consisted of a Latvian player from an academy in Italy, Dmitrijs Zelenkovs, alongside Brazilian winger Bill, who was loaned in from Ukrainian side Dnipro-1. And club legend and former captain Tomáš Šimkovič made a surprising return to the club. In the return leg in Malta, RFS won 3–1 to secure their place in the play-off round.
In the deciding play-off round, RFS had to face Northern Irish champions Linfield. In the first leg at home, RFS started well, but a missed penalty from Petr Mareš backfired as Linfield scored two goals. With 2 minutes remaining, RFS got one back, and in the 6th added minute, they equalized (2–2). In the return leg at Linfield, RFS once again went behind in the 104th minute of extra time, but once again, in the added time, RFS scored to take the game into penalties, which they eventually won to secure their place in the Conference League group stage.
However, in the league, RFS failed to beat league leaders Valmiera FC at home (2–2) and were now 3rd – 8 points off the top. Following their qualification to the UECL, things went downhill back in the league and the cup as they won only 6 out of their remaining 11 league games and lost in the Latvian Cup final to FK Auda (0–1). RFS just slightly clinched 3rd place in the league and secured their place in the European competition qualifiers for next year.
UECL Group stage
Following their entry into their first ever European group stage, RFS traveled away to Florence, where they managed a famous 1–1 draw with Fiorentina as Andrej Ilić became the first RFS player to score in European group stage matches. It was followed by a 2–0 loss to Heart Of Midlothian at home and a 0–0 draw against Istanbul Basaksehir.
RFS lost the return match against Basaksehir 3–0 and then to Hearts 2–1. The last group match was at home versus Fiorentina, but despite scoring a goal, which was later disallowed, RFS lost 3–0 as their first ever European run came to an end.
Regaining the Title (2023)
At the start of the 2023 season, Tomáš Šimkovič, Kevin Friesenbichler, and Tomislav Šarić all left the club as many experienced Latvian players arrived – Mārcis Ošs, Roberts Savaļnieks, and Jānis Ikaunieks. The club also signed a new sponsorship deal with Tonybet Fan. In May 2023, the club changed its full legal name from Rīgas futbola skola to FC RFS at the Register of Enterprises of Latvia.
The team began the season below expectations with just 2 wins in their first 5 matches, but slowly gained form and were the only unbeaten side in the league by the time the European qualifiers arrived. However, despite not having lost a single match, the team was in second place, a few points behind their rivals Riga FC.
Meanwhile, in the UECL qualifiers, RFS advanced into the 2nd round after defeating Macedonian side Makedonija GP 5–1 on aggregate. However, in the 2nd round, they were knocked out by Azerbaijani side FK Sabah after suffering an unlucky 2–0 loss at home and then a 2–1 loss away from home, which brought their European journey to an end.
In the summer transfer window, Andrej Ilić left the team as he was signed by Norwegian higher division side Vålerenga. In his place came the striker Darko Lemajič, who had previously played for the club.Although in the league, RFS were performing well as they had not lost a single league game since August 2022, that run was broken by Latvian champions Valmiera FC, as they brought RFS’ 39-match unbeaten run to an end. Had RFS won that match, they would have moved to the top of the table as FC Riga lost to FS Jelgava in the same gameweek.
With just 8 Gameweeks to go, the next match between RFS and Riga FC was considered the title decider as both teams faced each other for the fourth time this season and once again drew. RFS, as well as Riga, won their next 5 matches in the league before meeting each other again in the Latvian Cup final, in which finally one side came out victorious as Riga won on penalties (1–1 after extra time). That was the second season in a row in which RFS had lost the final.
However, back in the league, Riga finally dropped points following their 1–1 draw with SK Super Nova, and RFS took advantage of that by scoring 2 injury-time goals against FK Tukums to win 5–4 in a 9-goal thriller and to clinch an important 3 points. Both teams won their next two matches as it all came down to the last matchday, with RFS still being 1 point behind.
RFS faced Metta, while Riga FC faced the current title holders Valmiera FC away from home. The home advantage paid off as Valmiera managed to draw, leaving it in RFS’ hands to win the title. Back in Riga, RFS obtained a crucial penalty converted by Jānis Ikaunieks, granting them their second Latvian championship title.
Europa league and domestic dominance (2024)
RFS started the 2024 Virsliga season by defeating FK Auda 2-1.
They lost their next match to Valmeria FC, but won 7 of 8 before losing to Valmeria again.
Their European campaign started in the Champions League first qualifying round, where they took on Northern Irish champions Larne F.C., and won 7-0 on aggregate. They lost in the 2nd qualifying round to Norwegian champions FK Bodø/Glimt 7-1 on aggregate.
In the Europa League 3rd qualifying round, RFS played Andorran champions UE Santa Coloma, winning by a score of 9-0 on aggregate. In the Europa league playoff round they faced the Cypriot champions APOEL FC, and shocked them by winning 4-2 on penalties, after a 3-3 aggregate draw.
In the Europa League draw, their opponents were confirmed as FCSB (away), Galatasaray (home), Eintracht Frankfurt (away), R.S.C. Anderlecht (home), PAOK (home), Maccabi Tel Aviv (away), Ajax (home), and Dynamo Kyiv (away). They started their Europa league campaign by losing 4-1 to FCSB in Romania.
Grounds
In their first ever season, RFS moved across various stadiums before eventually locating at Jānis Skredelis' stadium in Riga, which was their home stadium from 2016 until the middle of 2022.
However, after that period, RFS moved to their new ground called LNK Sporta Parks, which was built by the RFS chairman's company – LNK Properties.
The sports complex includes two natural grass grounds – one for matches, one for training sessions – and three artificial grounds. They also played selected European matches at Skonto Stadium.

Rivalries
Riga Derby
There is a fierce rivalry between the two strongest teams in a national league, and this is particularly the case in the Virsliga, RFS and Riga FC, made their debuts at the same time. Both teams slowly became the leading sides of the league, RFS won 2 league titles while Riga FC won 3.
The Riga Derby is also the most attended game in Latvian club sport, averaging around 3 thousand fans per game.
In popular culture
"Fight for the Dream 22′" is a documentary series created by the Lithuanian director Rimvydas Čekavičius, which reflects the journey of RFS in Europe in the 2022–23 UEFA Europa Conference League, when RFS became only the 2nd club in the history of Latvia to enter the group stage of European competitions.
The Lithuanian filming team spent almost the entire season with RFS, being together not only in training and games but also outside the football field. The series consist of a total of six episodes, each lasting one hour.
