Tallinna FC Starmedia continues on its own, no longer linked to Maardu Linnameeskond II

At the beginning of the 2025 season, Tallinna FC Starmedia merged with the second team of Maardu Linnameeskond to play in the Estonian Second League B, South-East Group, where they finished third, very close to the second place, which would have allowed them to participate in the promotion play-offs for the Second League (fourth tier in Estonia).

Despite the relatively good results, the two separated at the beginning of 2026. The main team of Maardu Linnameeskond promoted to Esiliiga (the second tier in Estonian football) but remained without a second team, because Tallinna FC Starmedia decided to continue on its own in the 2026 season of the Estonian Second League B, South-East Group, which has just started. Yesterday, in the first round, Tallina FC Starmedia won 5-0 at home over JK Kuusalu Kalev. The name Maardu Linnameeskond II is no longer there, and it seems that, for the moment, the club has not registered the second team in any of the lower Estonian leagues.
