Founded in 2002,
Progresul Fundulea spent its entire history competing in the
Călărași County championships, the fourth and fifth tiers of
Romanian football. Progresul earned promotion to
Liga III at the end of the
2022–23 season, after winning Liga IV – Călărași County and defeating
LPS HD Clinceni, winners of
Liga IV – Ilfov County, 4–1 on aggregate. In its
debut season in Liga III, Progresul, under the leadership of coach
Augustin Călin, finished 9th in Series III in both the regular season and the play-out round, and was relegated back to the
fourth division. However, Fundulenii were spared from relegation due to the withdrawal of other teams. Călin departed after five rounds of the
2024–25 campaign and was succeeded by former Romanian international
Costin Lazăr, who made significant changes to strengthen the squad, bringing in eight new players during the winter break including Bogdan Ștefan, Daniel Târțău,
Robert Stănici, Ștefan Coman, Mihai Badea, Adrian Perenyi, Mihai Popescu and Mario Abăluță. Under Lazăr’s guidance, Progresul Fundulea concluded the regular season in 4th place and secured 3rd place in the play-off round of Series III. ==Honours==
