History

Konyaspor were founded officially with the name Konya Gençlerbirliği on 22 June 1922. As champions of the regional Konya Football League they participated in the 1924 Turkish Football Championship, the first ever national championship in Turkish football. In 1965 the club combined with Meramspor, Selçukspor, and Çimentospor and took the name Konyaspor with black and white as the team colors, and started their first season in the Second League in 1981. Konyaspor then changed to green and white as the team colours after their merger with the cross-town rivals Konya İdman Yurdu. The new team adopted the name of Konyaspor and the colors of Konya İdman Yurdu. In 1987–88 Konyaspor became champions of the second league and were promoted to the first league for the first time in their history.

Konyaspor lasted five seasons in the first league. They played 160 official matches, ending up with 47 wins, 33 draws, and 80 losses. During the 1988–89 season Konyaspor made it to the semi-finals of the Turkish Cup, losing to eventual champions Beşiktaş. In the 1992–93 season, the club were relegated back to the second league. After spending 10 seasons in the second league, Konyaspor returned to Süper Lig as the title holders of the 2002–03 First League with 68 points. During the 2003–04 season Konyaspor made it to the quarter-finals of the Turkish Cup, but then lost to eventual champions Trabzonspor 2–1 during extra time. In 2004–05 Konyaspor advanced to the quarter-finals beating Beşiktaş 3–1, but then lost to Denizlispor 5–4 on penalty shoot-outs. In 2008–09 despite the 3–0 home win against Ankaraspor, Konyaspor couldn't avoid relegation as they remained 16th in the table with 38 points which meant their relegation from the Süper Lig. Konyaspor were in the Süper Lig since 2003. However, Konyaspor completed the TFF First League 6th and secured a position in the Promotion Play-offs in 2010. Konyaspor then won the Promotion Play-offs and made an immediate return to the Süper Lig after 1 year. They finished the Play-offs 1st with 7 points beating Adanaspor 3–1 in the first game, Karşıyaka 1–0 in the second and drawing with Altay 2–2 in the final match. But Konyaspor relegated again in the 2010–11 season.

They returned to the top level two years later. In 2015–16 Konyaspor eventually finished Süper Lig as 3rd, also the best result for them, and qualified for the UEFA Europa League. In 2016–17 they play for the first time in their history in European competitions and draw in Group H with Shakhtar Donetsk, Braga and Gent. They finished the group in fourth place with five losses, one draw and without winning any match. Also in the same season they reached the Turkish Cup final for the first time in their history. On 31 May 2017 Konyaspor defeated İstanbul Başakşehir to win their first ever Turkish Cup in the club's 95-year history. In the first Turkish Cup final since the 2007–08 season in which none of Istanbul's "big three" clubs Beşiktaş, Fenerbahçe, and Galatasaray were competing, Konyaspor against İstanbul Başakşehir finished regular and extra time tied 0–0 and won on penalty shoot-outs with a result of 4–1.

In the 2017–18 season, Konyaspor defeated Beşiktaş 2–1 to win the Turkish Super Cup. During the season, manager Mustafa Reşit Akçay parted ways with the club and was replaced by Mehmet Özdilek in October 2017. Özdilek left in March 2018, with Sergen Yalçın taking over. Konyaspor finished the league in 15th place with 36 points. In the 2018–19 season, Sergen Yalçın left in June 2018 after ten matches (4W, 3D, 3L), and Rıza Çalımbay was appointed as the new manager. After Çalımbay’s departure in November, Aykut Kocaman returned as manager and led the team to an 8th-place finish. In September 2019, Konyaspor signed a five-year sponsorship deal with İttifak Holding. During the 2019–20 season, Kocaman left the club in February 2020 and was replaced by Bülent Korkmaz. Konyaspor avoided relegation, finishing 13th with 36 points.

In the 2020–21 season, Korkmaz left before the season began, and İsmail Kartal was appointed. He was replaced mid-season by İlhan Palut, who helped the team secure an 11th-place finish. In the 2021–22 season, Konyaspor, under Palut, achieved their second-best league finish, placing 3rd and qualifying for the UEFA Europa Conference League.

In January 2023, Aleksandar Stanojević replaced Palut as manager. His tenure ended in October 2023, and Hakan Keleş took over, though he also parted ways by January 2024. Fahrudin Omerović briefly managed the team until April, followed by former player Ali Çamdalı.
