All statistics correct as of 7 June 2026.

The 2025–26 Serie C, officially known as Serie C Sky Wifi for sponsorship,[2] was the twelfth season of the unified Serie C division, the third tier of the Italian football league system.

Changes

The league will be composed of 60 teams, geographically divided into three groups. The group composition will be decided and formalized by the Serie C league committee between July and August. Inter Milan have shown interest in adding their U23 team, but the change requires the approval of the league and an available spot, whereas Lucchese opted not to apply for a league spot instead.[3]

The following teams have changed divisions since the 2024–25 season:

To Serie C

Relegated from Serie B

Promoted from Serie D

From Serie C

Promoted to Serie B

Relegated to Serie D

According to the Italian Football Federation regulations, retired and folded clubs are included and counted among the ordinary seasonal relegations, while excluded clubs must be replaced, in order:

Between June and July 2025, Brescia and SPAL's applications were rejected by the COVISOC (the Italian Football Federation's office responsible for evaluating the financial state of professional clubs).[5][6] As a consequence, it was widely expected Inter Milan's Under-23 team and Ravenna to be admitted to the league.[7]

Also, on 17 July 2025, Feralpisalò chairman and owner Giuseppe Pasini formally confirmed his club would rename to Union Brescia and relocate to the city of Brescia.[8]

On 24 July 2025, the Serie C Federal Council ratified the exclusion of Lucchese, SPAL, and Brescia, approved the reinstatement of Pro Patria, and confirmed the admission of Inter Milan Under-23 and Ravenna.[9]

On 28 November 2025, the Italian Football Federation formally excluded Rimini from the league with immediate effect following the club's liquidation.[10]
