In 1947, after merging with U.S. Arsenale Taranto, another team in the city, the club assumed the name of U.S. Arsenaltaranto, which lasted until 1955, when the old one was restored.
Because of all that, it was forced to change its name to a different one, Taranto Football Club SpA.
A new team, named Taranto Calcio 1906, was established in 1993 and registered to Serie D by the FIGC.
However, in 2004 the team was declared bankrupt one more time, and the consequent bankruptcy auction entrusted the club in the hands of businessman Vito Luigi Blasi, who changed its name in Taranto Sport Srl.
On 29 June 2012 it was excluded from Italian professional football and did not take its place in the 2012–13 championship of Lega Pro Prima Divisione.
[citation needed] In 2016 the team finished the season in second place and lost in the play-offs to Fondi, but eventually benefitted from a repechage and promoted to Lega Pro.
A year later the team finished 3rd in Serie D/H but again lost in the playoff final, this time to Audace Cerignola.
