MIDLAND League side AFC Wulfrunians have announced a name change for next season.
After the current campaign, they will be known as Wolverhampton City FC.
A social media post on Sunday says the move is to give the club a ‘stronger identity’ and take them to ‘new heights’.
The statement from the club reads: “We have some very exciting news to share with you. This will be our final season as AFC Wulfrunians football club. The last two decades have been amazing, full of highs and of course a few lows.
“There have been memorable moments and incredible friends made throughout the years, and we would like to thank everyone that has contributed to the club during that time. Without you, it would not have been possible.

“However, this is far from the end. This is just the start of a new journey for the club and we hope you will all continue to be part of the next adventure.
“The club is going to be renamed and branded to give us a stronger identity of our own, and one that we feel will elevate the club to new heights. It will bring us closer to the community and one that will be recognised across the country.
“This will also enable us to develop our junior section and give them a badge they can wear with pride, as we all will.
“We would like to introduce you too… Wolverhampton City Football Club”.
AFC Wulfrunians are currently lying 12th in the Midland League Premier Division.
