Club Atlético Platense, commonly known simply as Platense, is a historic Argentine football club based in the Vicente López district of Greater Buenos Aires, competing in the Argentine Division 1, the Primera División. They play their home matches at the Estadio Ciudad de Vicente López. Founded in 1905, the club is nicknamed "El Calamar" (The Squid) and wears distinctive white shirts with a vertical brown stripe. Platense boasts a rich history, having been a founding member of the Argentine Football Association and spending many decades in the top flight, even finishing as league runners-up in the 1910s. Their last major trophy was the 1994 Clausura tournament, a memorable achievement that defines a modern peak. After a long absence, their recent promotion back to the top division marks a triumphant modern era, where they aim to re-establish themselves as a stable Primera club with a squad built on grit and tactical organization. The club has a loyal, traditional fanbase known for their fervent support. Platense's return to the elite is a celebration of one of Argentina's oldest football institutions.
