AS Monaco News

Official Club Name: Association Sportive de Monaco Football Professionnel

Year of Establishment: 1924

Home/Stadium: Louis-II (capacity: 18,500)

Significant Players: Shabani Nonda, Flavio Roma

The Association Sportive de Monaco Football Club is a Monegasque football club, founded in 1924. They became a professional club after 1948. Although the club is in Monaco, it has always competed in the French football structure. For this reason, it has always been regarded with a certain suspicion by a segment of the French population. Some, like former Olympique Marseille president, have hinted that Monaco should not be allowed to use its income-tax exemption as it gives it an unfair advantage. This would roughly equal to adding 1/3 extra to A.S. Monaco's budget. AS Monaco's home ground is Stade Louis II, an all-seater with a capacity of 18,500 in the Fontvieille section of Monaco. The stadium, as well as the Fontvieille district, was built entirely on land reclaimed from the Mediterranean Sea. Monaco were finalists in the UEFA Champions League in 2004, but were defeated by FC Porto.
