In summer 2013 the club was refound as A.S.D. Sambenedettese Calcio[4] by the entrepreneur Gianni Moneti restarting from Eccellenza. with the 2013–14 season seeing the club claim the victory in Eccellenza Marche and promotion from Serie D. The next year Manolo Bucci joined the company with Moneti, with the new company aiming to win the Serie D Girone F, but at the end of season the club finished in third place and lost the first match of the play-offs. On 17 June 2015 Bucci left Sambenedettese and Moneti looked for another partner. On 4 August 2015 Moneti, sold the company to Franco Fedeli, who two days later submitted repechage to apply for Lega Pro to FIGC.

In 2016 the club were promoted back to Lega Pro as the Group F winner of 2015–16 Serie D. The club was known as S.S.D. Sambenedettese ARL at that time.[5] At the start of 2016–17 season the company behind the club changed the name to S.S. Sambenedettese S.r.l. (P.IVA 02177180441), but marketing as S.S. Sambenedettese Calcio. On 2020, the club was sold by Franco Fedeli to Italian-Argentine entrepreneur and Bangor City F.C. owner Domenico Serafino.[6] However, less than a year later, after Serafino's failure to comply with several financial requirements, the club was declared bankrupt.

The fifth refoundation

The club's name was then assigned to entrepreneur Roberto Renzi and the club was refounded as A.S. Sambenedettese.
