Albissola 2010, or simply Albissola, is an Italian association football club, jointly representing the towns of Albissola Marina and Albisola Superiore, Province of Savona, Liguria.
It currently plays in Serie C.
History
The current club was born in 2010 as the consequence of several mergers involving different teams in the cities of Albissola Marina and Albisola Superiore.
Starting as a Prima Categoria club, Albissola won its first promotion in 2012. In 2016, it started to climb above all the amateur leagues by winning consecutively the Promozione and Eccellenza league in back-to-back seasons.
In 2018, on its very first season of appearance in the Serie D, Albissola won the league title, thus ensuring itself a spot in the professional Serie C league for the 2018–19 season.
Due to the inability for the local stadium to comply with Serie C regulations, Albissola will start the season by playing its home games in the Stadio Comunale of Chiavari, the same venue as fellow Serie C club Virtus Entella.[1]
