Clube de Futebol União, commonly known as União da Madeira, is a Portuguese football club from Funchal, Madeira, currently playing in the Portuguese Second Division, Serie B. União was founded on 1 November 1913, thus being one of the oldest clubs in Portugal. It spent five years in the elite Portuguese Liga between 1989 and 1995 before being relegated, where they have never reached the top-flight again.

União da Madeira currently play their home games at the Campo do Adelino Rodrigues, having returned there in 2008, following a nomadic existence that saw them travel between their previous official home, the Estádio dos Barreiros, and regional stadiums spread across the island of Madeira. The current chairman is Diogo Ramos Andrade and the current manager is Edson Porto of Brazil.
