History

AS Valentigney was founded in 1920, in Valentigney, France. An amateur club for most of their existence, they made it to the 1926 Coupe de France Final, where they lost 4–1 to Olympique de Marseille. [1] Privately managed by Peugeot, Valentigney's early successes inspired the Peugeot management team to create FC Sochaux-Montbéliard in 1928. [2] From 1942 to 1944 during World War II, Sochaux and Valentigney briefly merged to create FC Sochaux Valentigney, but thereafter separated and ran independently again. [3]
