It competes in [[Liga MX]], the top division of [[Mexican football league system|Mexican football]], and plays its home matches at the [[Estadio Corona]].
Founded in 1983 as Club Santos IMSS Laguna by the [[Mexican Social Security Institute]] of the state of [[Durango]], and the following year it changed to its current name. The club reached the top division by acquiring the [[Ángeles de Puebla]] franchise in 1988.

Torreón|CF Torreón]] (which was moved to [[Guadalajara]], [[Jalisco]]). In 2013, it was the fifth most popular club in Mexico.<ref>[http://www.cronica.com.mx/notas/2013/731578.html Chivas y América: los más populares] (10 de marzo de 2013) (Spanish)</ref>

==History==
==={{anchor|Foundation and early years}}Formation and early years===
Santos Laguna was founded in 1983 by the [[Mexican Social Security Institute|IMSS]] of the state of [[Durango]]. Since the late 1970s, the IMSS had sponsored a national football tournament with teams from across the country. José Díaz Couder, IMSS head of social services in [[Gómez Palacio, Durango|Gómez Palacio]], was invited to participate in the tournaments despite the fact that he did not have a team. He appealed to the players he knew to form a team, based on [[Asturias F.C.]]

In 1987, [[Tuberos de Veracruz]], part of the [[Liga Premier de México|Segunda División de México]], was purchased by IMSS and moved to [[Santa Cruz Tlaxcala|Santa Cruz, Tlaxcala]]. The first Santos Laguna team spent less than a year in [[Tlaxcala]] before moving to Gómez Palacio. A lack of facilities spurred efforts to obtain Moctezuma Stadium ([[Estadio Corona]]) in [[Torreón]], owned by [[John Abusaid]], and the Saints made their first home in the former Estadio Corona. On September 4, 1988, the Warriors played their first game as Santos Laguna, winning 2–0.

===={{anchor|Segunda Division "A"}}Segunda Division A====
When the IMSS sold its professional sports clubs, [[Salvador Necochea Sagi]] bought Santos Laguna. In their first year in the [[Liga Premier de México|Segunda División 'A' de México]], the Warriors avoided relegation with three wins, two draws and one loss. William (the Clash) Galindo, Carlos González, Julio César Armendáriz, Tomás Moreno and Fernando de la Rosa were notable players.

In 1989, the Warriors earned their nickname when, after a poor start, they finished 10th. Their fan base grew, and the club's owners bought the first Estadio Corona. The club underwent changes the following year, replacing its logo with the current one and playing in green and white stripes. Of the 18 founding members of the [[Liga Premier de México|Segunda División 'B' de México]], two won promotion to the [[Liga MX|Primera División de México]]: the [[Correcaminos UAT|Autonomous University of Tamaulipas]] and Santos Laguna.

===Promotion to Primera Division===
[[File:Juan Pablo Rodríguez.jpg|thumb|200px|right|[[Juan Pablo Rodríguez]], footballer with more presences in the history of the club.]]
In 1988, Santos Laguna purchased the [[Ángeles de Puebla]] franchise and relocated it to [[Torreón]], [[Coahuila]], giving them [[Christian Saavedra]], [[Wilson Graniolatti]], Martín Zúñiga and [[Miguel Herrera]] and a record of three wins, four draws and one loss. [[Lucas Ochandorena|Lucas Ochoa]] scored the club's first Primera División goal and the Warriors, led by Carlos Ortiz, avoided relegation with Herrera's two goals paving the way for a 3–1 defeat of [[Atlético Potosino]].

In 1991, [[Grupo Modelo]] became majority owner of the club and [[Ramón Ramírez (footballer)|Ramon Ramirez]] made his Primera División debut with a goal against [[C.D. Guadalajara|Club Deportivo Guadalajara]]. Later, the following year, club president [[Armando Navarro Gascón]] and his wife died in a car accident.

President [[Alberto Cañedo]] and [[Chileans|Chilean]] coach [[Pedro García Barros|Pedro García]] arrived in 1993. Grupo Modelo made a strong investment in reinforcements, [[Antonio Apud|Antonio "El Turco" Apud]], [[Daniel Guzmán (footballer)|Daniel Guzmán]], [[Olaf Heredia]], [[Diego Silva]], [[Héctor Adomaitis]] and [[Richard Zambrano]] who joined players coming from the Segunda División such as [[Lupe Rubio|José Guadalupe Rubio]] and [[Pedro Muñoz (Mexican footballer)|Pedro Muñoz]]. The 1993–94 season saw the team for the first time qualify for the playoffs in the Primera División and managed to reach the final coinciding with their tenth anniversary of founding, though lost in overtime in the second leg of the final against [[Tecos F.C.|Club Deportivo Estudiantes Tecos]] who were coached by [[Victor Manuel Vucetich]].

In 1994, key player [[Ramón Ramírez (footballer)|Ramón Ramírez]] left for Guadalajara, but Santos qualified for the playoffs a second time. The Warriors participated in the 1995 [[CONCACAF]] Champions Cup, and were eliminated in the first round by [[C.D. FAS|Deportivo FAS]] of [[El Salvador]]. [[Argentines|Argentine]] [[Mauro Camoranesi]] played 13 games with Santos, scoring one goal before returning to [[Uruguay]]. Other notable players that season and the following one were [[Gabriel Caballero]], [[Francisco Gabriel de Anda]] and [[Miguel España]].

Chilean [[Cristian Montecinos]] reached the third league during the 1996 regular season, and Santos Laguna won their first Primera División title with new player [[Jared Borghetti]]. In the Verano 1997 tournament, Santos Laguna was eliminated by Guadalajara 5–0 in the [[Estadio Jalisco]]. Santos Laguna played poorly in the Invierno 1997 tournament, winning three games out of 17 and tied for last in the standings with [[Pumas UNAM]] and Tecos de la U.A.G. In 1998 the club reached one of the two [[Copa Libertadores#1990–1999|qualifying finals]] for the [[Copa Libertadores]], which was played on September 9 in [[Los Angeles, California|Los Angeles]].

[[File:Club_Santos_Laguna,_2013.jpg|thumb|left|250px|A match between Santos Laguna and [[Houston Dynamo]] corresponding to the quarterfinals of the [[Concacaf Champions League]] 2012-2013.]]
In the summer 2000 season, Santos Laguna was strengthened by the arrivals of [[Rodrigo Ruiz]] and [[Luis Romero (footballer, born 1991)|Luis Romero]]. During the regular season, the Warriors lost only two games and finished second in the overall standings behind [[Deportivo Toluca|Toluca]].

In the 2001 summer season, the club won their second league championship. During the winter 2001 season Santos Laguna, with eight losses, failed to qualify for the playoffs and finished eighth overall. In summer 2002, the Warriors were fourth in the overall standings but were eliminated 1–0 in the semi-finals by [[Club Necaxa|Necaxa]] at the Estadio Corona. Santos Laguna qualified for the CONCACAF Champions Cup that year for the second time. The Warriors defeated [[Tauro F.C.|Tauro FC]] of [[Panama]] by aggregate score of 5–3; in the next round, at home, Santos Laguna lost 3–2 overall to the U.S. champion [[Kansas City Wizards]]. At the end of the summer tournament, Fernando Quirarte and his coaching staff stepped down; Quirarte was replaced by [[Sergio Bueno]], who was soon sacked in favor of Luis Fernando Tena. Finishing eighth overall, Santos Laguna defeated defending champion and leader [[Club América|América]] 5–4 at the Estadio Azteca. The Warriors qualified for the group stage of the Merconorte Cup, defeating the Kansas City Wizards and [[Barcelona S.C.|Barcelona of Guayaquil]] twice each and Sporting Cristal once; their only loss was to Sporting Cristal, 2–1.

For the 2003 Apertura tournament (the club's 20th anniversary) reinforcements arrived in the form of [[Matías Vuoso|Vicente Matías Vuoso]] and [[Sixto Peralta]], Argentines who had played for [[Manchester City F.C.|Manchester City]] and [[Inter Milan]]. In the match at Estadio Corona against [[C.F. Monterrey|Monterrey]], 10 goals were scored. The Warriors qualified for the playoffs, but were eliminated in the quarter-finals, Luis Fernando Tena's contract was not renewed, and he was replaced by Eduardo De la Torre.

The Warriors began 2004 well, qualifying for the [[Copa Libertadores]] by defeating [[Atlas F.C.|Atlas]] 4–3, but were injured, inconsistent and tired in the Clausura 2004. The club, put up for sale, was in a precarious financial position but played two tournaments and finished 14th overall. In the Copa Libertadores, despite unpaid wages, Santos Laguna ended the group stage undefeated. In the second round, the Warriors were eliminated by [[Club Atlético River Plate|River Plate]] after a struggle.

During the Apertura 2004, the club was abandoned by the Ministry of Finance, who withdrew financial support and returned it to former owner Grupo Modelo with instructions not to invest more money in the franchise until current owner [[Carlos Ahumada Kurtz]] solved his legal problems. The club payroll was restructured, players were cut and Santos Laguna did not qualify for the playoffs.

In the Clausura 2005, the Warriors' Vicente Matias Vuoso won the scoring championship with 15 points and Rodrigo Ruiz set a Mexican record for scoring passes with 12 assists. Santos Laguna was plagued by injuries during the Apertura tournament. The Clausura 2006 tournament was disastrous for the club.

The Apertura 2007 was one of the team's best seasons. With the arrival of the [[Ecuadorians|Ecuadorian]] [[Christian Benítez]], Santos Laguna lost only one match and was visited by [[Pelé]].
For the Clausura 2008, the club scored 36 goals in the regular season. On June 1, 2008 Santos Laguna won their third Clausura championship, defeating [[Cruz Azul]]. The club began Apertura 2008 at Estadio Azteca against América.

Clausura 2009 was disastrous for the Warriors; coach [[Daniel Guzmán (footballer)|Daniel Guzmán]] was dismissed and replaced by Sergio Bueno, and the club's fortunes improved somewhat. In the CONCACAF Champions League quarter-finals against the Montreal Impact in Montreal's Olympic Stadium before a crowd of 55,571, the Impact surprised and won 2–0. Apertura 2009 opened the Nuevo Estadio Corona; Bueno was dismissed and replaced by Rubén Omar Romano.

In 2010, Santos fell just short of the title, losing 4–3 to Toluca. For the Apertura Christian Benítez returned to the club, contributing to their rise to the top of the table and scoring 14 goals. The Warriors lost 3–0 to Monterrey, their second consecutive final loss.
In the Clausura Rubén Omar Romano, unpopular with fans, was dismissed on February 20, 2011. Two days later, Diego Cocca debuted as coach in a 2–0 loss to Cruz Azul. Cocca lost his first six games before a 3–0 Week 12 victory over Cruz Azul, and the team did not qualify for the playoffs.

Cocca began Apertura 2011 with the support of the board and players, but was dismissed on September 3 and Eduardo Rergis became the interim coach. On September 12, Benjamín Galindo was appointed as new coach, with Héctor López his assistant. Under Galindo, Santos won five consecutive games and reached fourth place.

In the 2011–12 CONCACAF Champions League, Santos defeated the [[Seattle Sounders FC]] in the quarter-finals and [[Toronto FC]] in the semi-finals. In the final, the club lost to Rayados de Monterrey. In the Clausura 2012, Santos Laguna finished in first place for the second time in its history. In the quarter-finals, the club won 6–4 on aggregate. The first game of the semi-finals, against the [[Tigres UANL]] at the [[Estadio Universitario (UANL)|Estadio Universitario]], ended in a 1–1 draw and Santos won the second game to advance to the final. After playing Monterrey to a 1–1 draw at Estadio Tecnológico, Santos Laguna won the second game 2–1 with goals by Daniel Ludueña and Oribe Peralta for the club's fourth title.

The Apertura 2012 featured Edgar Gerardo Lugo and rising defensive stars [[Atlético Morelia|Monarcas Morelia]] and [[Oswaldo Alanis]]. However, Santos did not qualify for the playoffs and was unable to repeat its championship. At the end of the season, Benjamín Galindo sacked his two assistants before he himself was dismissed.

In the Clausura 2013, [[Portuguese people|Portuguese manager]] [[Pedro Caixinha]] was hired based on a recommendation by former [[Real Madrid]] coach [[José Mourinho]]. [[Daniel Ludueña]] and [[Christian Suárez]] were transferred to [[C.F. Pachuca|Pachuca]] in exchange for [[Mauro Cejas]], [[Néstor Calderón]] and promising [[Colombians|Colombian]] [[Andrés Rentería]]. Santos Laguna finished sixth during the regular season. They defeated Atlas 3–1 on aggregate in the quarter-finals and lost to Cruz Azul 0–3 and 2–1 in the semi-finals. In the 2012–13 CONCACAF Champions League, Santos again reached the final against Club de Fútbol Monterrey. The first game was a scoreless tie, and Monterrey won the second game 4–2.

For the Apertura 2013, Santos sold Iván Estrada to Pachuca and transferred [[Herculez Gomez]], Gerardo Lugo and Aaron Galindo. After the June purchase of Grupo Modelo by [[Belgium|Belgian]]-[[Brazil|Brazilian]] company [[AB InBev]], on August 8 Grupo Modelo announced the sale of Santos Laguna to new company Orlegi Sports (led by Alejandro Irarragorri and other [[Mexicans|Mexican]] businessmen). The new owners said that they would continue their sponsorship.

After defeating [[Atlante F.C.|Atlante]] 3–1 in the latter half of the [[2013–14 Liga MX season|Apertura 2013]], Santos Laguna secured a berth in the [[2014 Copa Libertadores|Copa Libertadores]] for the second time in their history.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.vavel.com/mx/futbol-mexicano/2013/10/27/santos-laguna/274012.html | language=es | date=27 October 2013 | author=Borboa, Salvador | publisher=Vavel | title=Santos, el primer clasificado a la Copa Libertadores | access-date=12 April 2020}}</ref> ''Los Guerreros'' finished undefeated at the top of Group 8, which included [[2012–13 Copa Argentina|Copa Argentina winners]] [[Arsenal de Sarandí]], [[2012–13 Uruguayan Primera División season|Uruguayan league champions]] [[Peñarol]] and [[2012–13 Venezuelan Primera División season|Venezuelan league runners-up]] [[Deportivo Anzoátegui S.C.|Deportivo Anzoátegui]].<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.espn.com.mx/noticias/nota?s=mex&id=2045086&type=story | language=es | date=17 March 2014 | author=Padilla, Cristian | publisher=ESPN | title=Santos Laguna, en 2 participaciones, tiene buenos números en Libertadores | access-date=12 April 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://expansion.mx/deportes/2014/02/18/santos-vence-2-0-al-penarol-y-es-lider-de-grupo-en-la-copa-libertadores | language=es | date=18 February 2014 | agency=Reuters | publisher=Expansión | title=Santos vence 2-0 al Peñarol y es líder de grupo en la Copa Libertadores | access-date=12 April 2020}}</ref> In the away leg of the Round of 16, Santos Laguna faced Argentinian side [[Club Atlético Lanús|Lanús]], which they lost 2-1.

==Grounds==
===Corona Stadium===
[[File:Estadio corona.jpg|thumb|200px|alt=Football pitch after a goal was scored|[[Estadio Corona (1970)|Old Corona Stadium (1970-2009)]]]]
Corona Stadium, in [[Torreón, Coahuila]], was one of the smallest [[Association football|football]] stadiums in Mexico with a capacity of 20,100. Known as Montezuma Stadium, it opened on July 2, 1970, for a friendly match between the now-defunct [[Club de Fútbol Torreón|CF Torreón]] and [[C.D. Guadalajara|Guadalajara]]. The stadium was demolished on November 2, 2009.

===New Corona Stadium===
Santos Laguna plays at the $100 million [[Estadio Corona]], with a capacity of 30,050. Construction began on February 22, 2008, and on November 11, 2009, the stadium opened for a friendly match between Santos Laguna and [[Santos FC]] from the Brazilian [[Campeonato Brasileiro Série A|Série A]]. The sellout crowd included Mexican president [[Felipe Calderón]] and Brazilian legend [[Pelé]]. Santos Laguna won, 2–1.

==Symbols==

==={{anchor|Logo}}Insignia===
[[File:SantosLagunaLogo2008.png|100px|thumb|alt=Green Gothic "S" under a gold halo|Club logo]]

Santos Laguna's home colors are green and white. When Santos Laguna was founded in 1983, its crest was white with green stripes and letters (similar to that of [[Santos FC]]). In 1991, when [[Grupo Modelo]] bought the club, the crest became similar to the current one. In 1996, a star was added to the badge after winning their first title in the [[1996–97 Mexican Primera División season#Tornero Invierno 1996|Invierno 1996]] tournament. After winning their second title in 2001, another star was added and switched to a darker shade of green with a black outline. As of 2012, the stars have been placed outside of the badge. In 2018, the club used a special badge, incorporating the number '35' for the club's 35th anniversary. A sixth star was added after winning the [[2017–18 Liga MX season#Torneo Clausura|Clausura 2018]] tournament.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.clubsantos.mx/contenidos/escudo|title=Escudo|language=es|access-date=23 June 2018|trans-title=Badge|work=clubsantos.mx|archive-date=13 December 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201213035038/https://www.clubsantos.mx/contenidos/escudo|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==={{anchor|Anthem}}Songs===
In 1991, when the club was in danger of relegation to the second division, Santos adopted their first team song: "Es hora de ganar", by [[Ricardo Serna]]. In April 1994, Serna wrote "Santos Campeon". Two years later, Chilean composer Martin Ibarreche Wilt Labarca was commissioned to write "Verdiblanco el corazon". In 1997 Serna wrote "Hymn to the Fans", and in May 2001 the club introduced "Venceremos". [[Yahir]] of ''[[La Academia]]'' sang a song celebrating the club's 25th anniversary.

[[File:América_vs_Santos_3.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Santos playing the second leg of the semifinal of the Concacaf Champions League against America in 2016.]]
On December 9, 2010, Santos formed a partnership with [[Scotland|Scottish]] champions [[Celtic F.C.|Celtic]]. Like Celtic, Santos wear a green-and-white hooped kit and the clubs regularly mention each other on [[Twitter]] and [[Facebook]].<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/celtic/9274340.stm Celtic to form ties with Mexican club Santos Laguna] BBC Sport, December 9, 2010</ref> On January 10, 2013, Santos formed a partnership with [[Atlético Nacional]].<ref>[http://www.antena2.com.co/audios/antioquia/convenio-entre-atletico-nacional-y-santos-lag-43959 Convenio entre Atlético Nacional y Santos Laguna de México] (Spanish)</ref>

==Rivalries==
