History
[edit]Dejan FC was originally an amateur football club, debuting in the Liga 3 West Java Zone 1 in the 2022–23 season. They made it to the final but lost to Persipasi Kota Bekasi by 1–0.[3]
In the following season, Dejan FC could only finish 3rd in group B and failed to make it to the second round. However, due their performance in the previous season, Dejan FC earned a ticket to the national round of the top 80 in the 2023–24 season. The results were quite positive, they won 2–0 against TS Saiburai on 29 April 2024, and 5–0 over PS Palembang on 5 May 2024, followed by a draw against Perse Ende with a score of 3–3 two days later.[4]

After being held to a 2–2 draw against PSGC Ciamis, Dejan FC ensured qualification for the round of 16 after winning 4–1 over Persikasi Bekasi on 15 May 2024.[4]
