About Metalurh Zaporizhzhia

The Sports club "Metalurh Zaporizhzhia" (Ukrainian: Спортивний клуб «Металу́рг» Запорі́жжя, IPA: ) is a Ukrainian professional football club based in Zaporizhzhia. Reestablished in 2017, it is a "phoenix club" of the original Soviet factory "team of masters" Metalurh that existed in 1935–2016 of the Soviet metallurgical giant Zaporizhstal.

The original club holds several historical records of Soviet football, particularly while participating in the Soviet second tier (in 1971–1991 known as the First League). The club has spent the highest number of seasons in the Soviet second tier, as well as earned the highest number of tournament points. The club is also a three-time champion of the Ukrainian republican competitions. Just before the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the team of masters Metalurh Zaporizhia was transformed into a commercial football club.

In 2017, the city of Zaporizhia administration reestablished the football club as Miskyi Football Club Metalurh Zaporizhia. In December 2024, the organization designation was changed to a sports club at the decision of the city council.
