01History
Aves have spent most of their history in the lower leagues, having their debut Primeira Liga season in 1985-86 after winning consecutively the second and third divisions. They returned to the top flight for 2000-01 and 2006-07, again for one season each.
Aves won promotion from LigaPro in 2016-17, finishing as runners-up to Portimonense under the management of José Mota. On 20 May 2018, the club defeated Sporting CP 2-1 and won their first Taça de Portugal. However, Aves did not qualify for the 2018-19 UEFA Europa League group stage because they failed to obtain a license for European competitions. The team were relegated in 2019-20, with five games to play, were marred by financial problems. For these reasons, they and Vitória were given a further relegation to the third tier.
On 23 September 2020, Aves withdrew before the start of the season. Due to unpaid debts to other clubs, the club received a transfer ban from FIFA, which it sidestepped by founding new entity Clube Desportivo das Aves 1930 in October.
