Football in Aosta Valley now

Since 2010, A.S.D. Vallée d’Aoste Charvensod have claimed to be the heir of the club, however the sports title and assets have never been acquired. In 2012 when Saint-Christophe was promoted to Lega Pro Seconda Divisione, the club changed their common name to just Vallée d’Aoste in order to represent the whole valley. The team, however, has no intentions to acquire the sports title and assets.
