Real Club Deportivo Mallorca, commonly known as Real Mallorca, is a Spanish football club based in Palma, the capital of the Balearic island of Majorca. The oldest club in the Balearic Islands, Mallorca was originally formed by Adolfo Vázquez, a republican engineer, who named the club Junta Directiva del Alfonso XIII FBC after the then king. A year later, the club changed its name to Real Sociedad Alfonso XIII, which remained until the club was renamed in 1931, for political reasons, Club Deportivo Mallorca. In 1949 they were granted royal patronage, allowing them to use the Real prefix. The club has spent most of its history in the top two tiers of Spanish football, and won the Copa del Rey for the first time in 2003.
Chelsea's only meetings with Real Mallorca came in the 1998-99 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup semi-finals, with the Spanish side knocking out the defending champions 2-1 on aggregate to reach the final of what would be the last staging of the competition, where they lost to Lazio.
