AS Differdange
Luxembourg · Founded: 1921
AS Differdange was a football club based in Differdange in south-western Luxembourg. It was formed as part of the local football structure in the city and competed within the Luxembourg league system, mainly operating in the lower and middle divisions. The club was one of several teams representing Differdange before later structural changes in the local football scene.
AS Differdange is best known for being one of the two clubs that merged in 2003 to create FC Differdange 03, alongside the historic FA Red Boys Differdange. At the time of the merger, AS was playing in the lower tiers of Luxembourg football, while Red Boys was the more successful and established side. The combination of both clubs aimed to unify football in the city and strengthen competitiveness at national level.
After the merger, AS Differdange ceased to exist as an independent entity, and its history became part of FC Differdange 03. Although it did not achieve major national honours on its own, the club remains an important part of the background history of modern football in Differdange, contributing to the formation of one of Luxembourg’s current top-flight teams.
