Taichung Futuro Football Club () is a professional football club based in Taichung, Taiwan which currently competes in the Taiwan Football Premier League.
History Taichung Futuro Football Academy was founded in 2016 by Japanese footballer Yoshitaka Komori. The men's team was established in 2018. A second-place finish in 2022 meant qualification to next season's AFC Cup play-offs. They secured a group stage place in the 2023-24 AFC Cup after beating Macanese side Monte Carlo 2–1 in the East Asia Zone play off, and managed to secure progression to the Inter-zone play-off semi-finals by virtue of goal difference over Mongolia's FC Ulaanbaatar.
