History

edit
 
C.A. Rentistas in 1971.

In 1971, Rentistas was the first team of the neighbourhood (barrio) Cerrito de la Victoria that achieved promotion to the Uruguayan first division. They remained there until 1980. Rentistas returned to the first division on three other occasions (1989–92, 1997–01, 2004–07).

In 1998 Rentistas inaugurated their new stadium, Complejo Rentistas. The club finished second in the Clausura and qualified for the CONMEBOL Cup 1999.

Controversies

edit

Rentistas is known for their involvement in third-party ownership.[1] The transfer fee of Hulk was channeled through the club.[2]
