Amazonas Futebol Clube, commonly referred to as Amazonas, is a Brazilian professional club based in Manaus, Amazonas founded on 23 May 2019. It competes in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B, the second tier of Brazilian football, as well as in the Campeonato Amazonense, the top flight of the Amazonas state football league.
The club was founded in 2019 by former members from the administrations of other Manaus clubs with the objective of organizing a competitive club and revitalize football in the state of Amazonas. Despite its recent founding, the club has been successful, winning a Campeonato Amazonense in 2023, and the Campeonato Brasileiro Série C in the same year, the first national title by a club from the Amazonas state.
The club plays at Estádio Municipal Carlos Zamith, but for larger games it uses the Arena da Amazônia, one of the 2014 FIFA World Cup stadium.
Amazonas is the best ranked team from Amazonas State in CBF's national club ranking.
