Club Atlético Lanús is an Argentine sports club from the Lanús district of Greater Buenos Aires. Founded on 3 January 1915, the club’s main sports are football and basketball. In both sports, Lanús plays in Argentina’s top divisions: Primera División (football) and Liga Nacional de Básquet (basketball). In football, Lanús has won two major championships in its history: the 1996 Copa CONMEBOL (the precurssor of the current Copa Sudamericana) and the 2007 Apertura.
In 1854 Anacarsis Lanus arrived from France and acquired the lands where the city of Lanús is placed nowadays. Two institutions were named “Lanús” by that time. One of them was Lanús Athletic Club, which took part of the 1897 Argentine Primera División championship although the club then abandoned the tournament. The other club was Lanús United (predecessor of current Club Atlético Lanús) which participated in the Copa de la Confederación Argentina in 1913 and 1914.
Club Atlético Lanús was founded on 3 January 1915, being formed from the merger of Lanús United (that was in a desperate financial situation) and Club El Progreso. Miguel Usaray was designed as President, the first in the history of the club. In an assemble held on 27 January 1915, the name “Club Atlético Lanús” was officially established.

Back in the top division, Lanús would be the sensation of 1951 championship, finishing the first round in the 1st place along with Independiente. Forward José Florio was the top scorer with 21 goals, having been sold to Italian club Torino for a record $ 1,500,000. The club later used the money to build a gym.
Lanús finished 5th in 1954 and 1955. One year later Lanús would achieve its best performance in Primera División until then, finishing 2nd. to River Plate. Due to an outstanding line of forwards (that scored 49 goals in 30 games) and their skills with the ball, that squad was nicknamed The Globetrotters honoring the famous basketball team. The team suffered a lot of injuries all season long, with only Dante Lugo playing all matches. The usual team was Vega; Prato, Beltrán; Daponte, Hector Guidi, Nazionale; Carranza, Lugo, Alfredo Rojas, Urbano Reynoso, Moyano.
