Which La Liga club is nicknamed 'Los Pucelanos'?

The La Liga club nicknamed “Los Pucelanos” is Real Valladolid.

The nickname comes from “Pucela,” a traditional name for Valladolid and, by extension, for people from the city. The club is therefore commonly called Pucela or Los Pucelanos, alongside nicknames referencing its violet-and-white colours, such as Blanquivioletas.

Real Valladolid was founded in 1928 through the merger of Club Deportivo Español and Real Unión Deportiva. It made its La Liga debut in 1948–49 and has remained the most prominent club from Castile and León. Its home is the Estadio José Zorrilla, opened in 1982.

A common mix-up is confusing the nickname with the club’s official name: “Pucelanos” identifies Valladolid supporters or the club, while Real Valladolid is the formal football name. The club’s best-known major honour is the 1984 Copa de la Liga.
