The Fiorentina Women's Football Club, also known as the Fiorentina Women's FC, is an Italian women's association football club based in Florence, Italy and part of the professional football club ACF Fiorentina. The club was founded in 2015 when ACF Fiorentina acquired the Serie A license of the existing women's club A.C.F.

In the 2016–17 season, the Fiorentina Women's Football Club won both the Serie A Championship and the Coppa Italia Championship. This was the first scudetto for the club ACF Fiorentina since 1969 and also the first Serie A championship won by ACF Fiorentina's current owner Andrea Della Valle. On 17 June 2017, the club ACF Fiorentina won their first double.[8] The Fiorentina Women's FC for the second consecutive year became the Coppa Italia title holders for their 3–1 win over Brescia.[9] The Fiorentina Women's FC qualified to participate in the 2017–18 and 2018–19 UEFA Champions League competitions.[10][11][12]
