Racing Fútbol Club Porto Palmeiras is a Mexican professional football team based in Boca del Río, Veracruz that will play in the Liga Premier de México starting in the 2023–24 season.
On 5 December 2019, the Veracruz metro area was left without representation in Mexican football after the dissolution of Tiburones Rojos de Veracruz, a team that played in the Liga MX.[1] Later, some clubs emerged seeking to fill the void left by the original team, such as Atlético Veracruz and Club Veracruzano de Fútbol Tiburón, however, both clubs failed in their attempt to attract fans from the city.

In April 2023, it reached an agreement with Racing City Group, a Qatari conglomerate that has teams around the world.[3]
On April 23, 2023, the agreement between Porto Palmeiras and Racing City Group was announced, the new team was called Racing Porto Palmeiras.[4]
On June 30, 2023, the team was accepted into the Liga Premier - Serie A, being placed in Group 2.[5] The club signed Héctor Jair Real as the first team manager.
