Persatuan Sepakbola Indonesia Kota Administratif Depok, commonly known as Persikad, is an Indonesian football club based in Depok, West Java. They currently compete in the Championship after bought Sumut United's licence.

History

This club was formed on 27 April 2018 as Persikad 1999 after the original club, Persikad Depok, was sold and moved its home base to Bogor and became Bogor Football Club (later became Sulut United).[1][2] Persikad 1999 acquired another West Java club, Mars Gelatik from Purwakarta to compete in Liga 3 West Java and was officially appointed through the PSSI West Java Congress in February 2020.[3]

After struggling for several seasons in the West Java regional league zone of Liga 3 and Liga 4, Persikad has again acquired a club. This time they acquired the club that won the 2024–25 Liga Nusantara, Sumut United, and changed its name from Persikad 1999 to Persikad Depok, similar to the name of the club that was previously sold to Bogor.[4]

As part of the acquisition, Persikad signed Sumut United's entire coaching staff, which included head coach Ridwan Saragih, as well as bringing in 8 players from the Liga Nusantara champions — Muhammad Irfan, Reza Lubis, Bagas Prasetyo, Alif Rizky, Ghozali Aufathul, Nico Sitepu, Hamzah Deva, and Faisal Ramadoni.[5]

Supporters and rivalries

Persikad has a core fan base known as Depok Mania. Other supporter groups include Persikad Fans Curva Sud and Ultras Persikad, both of which are primarily based in Depok.[8] Apart from that, Depok is also known as the base of The Jakmania, supporters of Persija Jakarta, which is already big and established.[9]

Due to their historical ties and proximity to Bogor Regency, which is the base of Persikabo Bogor, the two teams have met several times in matches called the Ciliwung derby.[10] The match is often marked by high tension between the supporters of the two teams who are involved in clashes in the stadium and on the street when they meet.[11]
