History

In January 2015, Keio University Soccer Team - playing in Tokyo Metropolitan Football League - decided to merge with Tokyo University Association Football Club, the football team of University of Tokyo. The will of this new reality is to reach J. League by 2020.[1]

After getting the club to Division 1 of Kantō Soccer League, the club changed their name to Tokyo United Football Club in 2016.[2] They also featured a female team, Bunkyo LB Ladies.[3]

On 2021, they merged with Tokyo Musashino City to form current Japan Football League club Tokyo Musashino United. The existing Tokyo United team became Musashino's reserve team.
