Football Club Clivense was an Italian former football club based in Chievo, in Verona. It was founded on 13 August 2021 by Sergio Pellissier, former captain of the defunct football club A.C. ChievoVerona. It currently competes in Serie D, the fourth level of Italian football.[2]
In May 2024, the club formally changed its denomination to AC ChievoVerona after having successfully acquired the logo and naming rights of the original club.[3]
History
[edit]After A.C. ChievoVerona was barred from registering to Serie B due to financial reasons in 2021,[4] former captain Sergio Pellissier decided to found a new club himself, originally named FC Chievo 2021.
The club was renamed to FC Clivense following a legal warning from A.C. ChievoVerona.[5] FC Clivense was first admitted to Terza Categoria, the lowest level of amateur football in Italy, winning the title by the end of the season.
In the summer of 2022, the team was able to climb up to Eccellenza, acquiring the sporting title of neighbours San Martino Speme and winning promotion to the 2023–24 Serie D as champions of their group.
On 10 May 2024, following a mid-table placement in the Serie D season, the club successfully acquired the logo and naming rights of the original ChievoVerona club in an auction.[6]
Later on 29 May, Clivense formally changed its denomination to the original AC ChievoVerona.[3]
Stadium
[edit]Clivense play their home matches at the 1,500-capacity Stadio Comunale, known for sponsorship reasons as Phoenix Arena and located in the municipality of San Martino Buon Albergo.
