Bragantino

Predecessor club

On 8 January 1928, former Bragança Futebol Clube members founded Clube Atlético Bragantino.

In 1949 the club played in the Campeonato Paulista Second Division for the first time. In 1965, Bragantino was promoted to the Campeonato Paulista First Division for the first time. In 1966, however, the club was relegated to the Campeonato Paulista Second Division.

In 1988, Bragantino was the Campeonato Paulista Second Division champion. In 1989, the club was promoted to the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A for the first time after winning the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. In 1990 Bragantino defeated the Novorizontino to win the Campeonato Paulista First Division. The final was nicknamed the caipira final (final caipira, in Portuguese language).

In 1991, the club was the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A runner-up. In the final, Bragantino was defeated by São Paulo. In 1992 the club competed in the Copa CONMEBOL, debuting in international competitions. In 1993 Bragantino competed in the Copa CONMEBOL for the second time. In 1995 the club was relegated to the Campeonato Paulista Second Division. In 1996 Bragantino competed in the Copa CONMEBOL for the third time.

In 1998, the club was relegated to the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B. In 2002, after a poor campaign, Bragantino were relegated to the Campeonato Brasileiro Série C. In 2005 the club was promoted to the Campeonato Paulista First Division. In 2007 Bragantino won the Campeonato Brasileiro Série C thus being promoted to the following year's Campeonato Brasileiro Série B.

Red Bull agreement

On 26 March 2019, Bragantino's president announced a partnership deal with Red Bull Brasil. Red Bull GmbH sought negotiations due to the team's failure to reach the Série A, preferring to partner with a different existing club. In April 2019, Bragantino signed a deal with Red Bull GmbH handling over management of all their football-related assets.

For the 2019 second division season the team was simply called Bragantino with Red Bull appearing only as a sponsor on the shirts. They were promoted to the Série A and qualified for the 2020 Copa do Brasil round of 16.

New club

From 2020 the name of Red Bull Bragantino was introduced. They changed the crest and its colours from its traditional black and white to red and white, de facto becoming a new club.

On 16 January 2023, Red Bull Brasil changed its name to Red Bull Bragantino II, becoming the B team of Red Bull Bragantino.
