'''FC Lahti''' is a [[Finland|Finnish]] professional [[Association football|football club]] based in the city of [[Lahti]]. It currently plays in the Finnish highest tier [[Veikkausliiga]], after being promoted from [[Ykkösliiga]] after the 2025 season. The home ground of Lahti is Toolpoint Arena. Lahti is famous of being the local team of the most successful Finnish player, [[Jari Litmanen]], who played for the club in two stints in 2004 and 2009–10. In his youth years and the start of his career, he played in [[Reipas Lahti]].
==History== {{unreferenced section|date=May 2026}} Lahti was founded in 1996 when two rival clubs from Lahti – [[FC Kuusysi|Kuusysi]] and [[Reipas Lahti]] (founded in [[Vyborg|Viipuri]] and moved to Lahti after Viipuri was ceded to [[USSR]] in 1947) – decided to merge. Also, the reserve club Pallo-Lahti was formed, but it was closed down after a couple of seasons due to economic difficulties. Both Reipas and Kuusysi controlled the junior section of the club. From 1996, there was only one original staff member left at start of the 2026 season, Pekka Penttinen.
Lahti played its first season in 1997, in the southern group of [[Ykkönen]], the second tier of [[Football in Finland|Finnish football]]. It finished second in the first half of the split league format Ykkönen, but was placed third in the final half, behind [[FC Haka|Haka]] and [[PK-35 Vantaa (men)|PK-35]], both of which were promoted to [[Veikkausliiga]]. The next season, in 1998, saw success and Lahti finally gained promotion to the highest tier. They were relegated at the end of the 2010 season, but bounced back after just one season in [[Ykkönen]].
In the premier division, Lahti has not yet achieved the success of Kuusysi and Reipas. In 2007, Lahti won the [[Finnish League Cup]]. In 2008 Lahti was third in the Veikkausliiga final table and was placed in the [[UEFA Europa League]] qualification rounds for season 2009. Lahti repeated the success in 2014 by finishing third for the second time in their history. The club qualified to the Europa League qualifiers for the third time in 2018 when the club finished fourth in the table the season before.
