The club will be playing in the Championship, the second tier division of Indonesia football, following a promotion from the 2025–26 Liga Nusantara as the runner-up.

History
[edit]Dejan was originally an amateur football club, debuting in the Liga 3 West Java Series 1 in the 2022–23 season.[1] They made it to the final but lost to Persipasi Kota Bekasi 1–0.[2]
In the following season, Dejan only finished 3rd in group B and failed to advance to the second round. However, due their performance in the previous season, Dejan earned a ticket to the national round of the top 80 in the 2023–24 season. The results were quite positive, they won 2–0 against TS Saiburai on 29 April 2024, and 5–0 over PS Palembang on 5 May 2024, followed by a draw against Perse Ende with a score of 3–3 two days later.[3]
These result brought Dejan through to the round of 32. In the first match they successfully defeated the 2023 Liga 3 Central Java champions Persip Pekalongan with a final score of 2–1. After being held to a 2–2 draw against PSGC Ciamis, Dejan ensured qualification for the round of 16 after winning 4–1 over Persikasi Bekasi on 15 May 2024.[3]
In the round of 16, Dejan joined in group C. They won their first match 1–0 against Persipani Paniai on 21 May 2024.[3] Later they were held to a 1–1 draw against Persipasi Bekasi on 23 May 2024, until Dejan secured qualification for the last 8 after a 1–0 win over Tornado two days later. In the round of 8, Dejan joined in group 1, and competed with Persekabpas Pasuruan, Persikas Subang, and Adhyaksa Farmel.[3] Dejan secured their promotion to the Liga 2 next season after beating Persekabpas 3–0 and Persikas 2–0. On 26 July 2024, Dejan officially announced the change of its team logo.[4]
In the 2026 PSSI Ordinary Congress, Dejan officially changed their name to de Red FC. They also moved their homebase from Depok to Surabaya. This was done after the club's ownership was transferred to the East Java Regional Leadership of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle.[5] Subsequently, de Red appointed Aji Santoso as their inaugural head coach.[6]
Supporters
[edit]Dejan supporters are called Careguard Boys 12.[7]
