History
C.D. Aspirante were formed on 18 May 1958 by Rafael Gálvez. In 2002 they won promotion to the second tier of Salvadoran football. Their greatest achievement was just missing promotion to the Salvadoran Premier Division after a 2-1 loss to Chalatenango in 2003. Prior to the tournament Aspirante's created a new administration, Mr. Manuel Turcios was named the new President of the Club. One of Mr. Turcio's first steps was to hire a new coach, Professor Mario Martínez. After agreeing to his contract terms Martínez started recruiting players in the district to form the basis of the team that would come so close to achieving promotion. However due to poor results and dealing with the local supporters Martínez handed in his resignation and despite the setback the club would just miss out on promotion. After the success the club has mainly stayed midtable failing to achieving the high they had once reached.
