A bit of history:
Metalurh has its roots in the team FC Antratsyt Kirovske. After a disappointing first season in the independent Ukraine, in the 1993 season Antratsyt placed third in the Third League and was promoted to the Second League. Once in the Second League the club relocated to Shahtarsk and changed its name to FC Medita Shahtarsk. A couple of years later the club was reorganized and renamed FC Metalurh Donetsk. After placing second in Druha Liha Group C the club gained the promotion to Persha Liha. The next season 1996/97 Metalurh won the Persha Liha championship and were promoted to the Vyscha Liha.
