AC Arles-Avignon (French: Athlétic Club Arles-Avignon) is a French football club. They compete in the Ligue 2 championship, and are based at the Parc des Sports in Avignon. The club was founded in 1913 by the fusion of three sports clubs: la Pédale joyeuse, Arles Auto-vélo and Arles Sports. In the 1970s, AC Arles played in the Ligue 2 and the Championnat National. In 1970 and 1973 they reached the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France. In 2009, the club earned promotion to Ligue 2. They left the old Stade Fernand Fournier in Arles to play in the Parc des Sports in Avignon, a bigger and more modern venue.[1] Subsequently, the club was renamed AC Arles-Avignon and adopted a new logo.[2] The agreement was easy, as Avignon's football club (Avignon Foot 84) plays in French lower leagues, and Arles did not have a decent stadium.[3] On the 12th October 2009, it was revealed that the club are in talks to become a feeder club to the English Premier League Club, Manchester City in a agreement that would see Manchester City players go on loan to the French side in return for first option on their players.
