The club was founded in 1960 and joined the Football Association of Yugoslavia the same year.[1] It remained a member until Slovenia gained its independence in 1991, when the club joined the Football Association of Slovenia. Maribor are one of only three Slovenian teams who participated in the Yugoslav highest division, the Yugoslav First League, between the end of the Second World War in 1945 and the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1991.[2] Apart from winning the Yugoslav second division once and the third division five times, they had no success during the Yugoslav period;[3] the closest they came to winning a major trophy was in the 1967–68 season, when they reached the semi-finals of the Yugoslav Cup.[4] Since 1991, Maribor have competed in the Slovenian PrvaLiga, the highest level of football in the country.[5] They were one of the founding members and are one of only two clubs that never dropped out of the league since the inaugural 1991–92 season.[6] Maribor are the most successful club in the country, having won 16 PrvaLiga titles, 9 Slovenian Cups and 4 Slovenian Supercups.[7]
Aside from winning the Slovenian title as Maribor's manager, Matjaž Kek won several championships with the club as a player.[8] Longtime Maribor captain Marcos Tavares joined the club in 2008 and became the all-time record holder for the most appearances and most goals, with 593 appearances and 211 goals until his retirement in 2022. He also holds the club record for most appearances and goals in the Slovenian top division with 436 and 159, respectively.[9] Furthermore, he also holds the club record for most appearances and goals in the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) competitions, with 94 and 31, respectively.[10]
