'''Football Club Dnipro''' ({{langx|uk|Футбо́льний Клуб «Дніпро́»}}, {{IPA|uk|fʊdˈbɔlʲnɪj ˈklub d⁽ʲ⁾n⁽ʲ⁾iˈprɔ|IPA|uk-Дніпро.ogg}}) was a Ukrainian [[association football|football]] club based in [[Dnipro]]. The club played its last season in the [[2018–19 Ukrainian Football Amateur League#Group 3|2018–19 Ukrainian Amateur League]]. The club was owned by Ukrainian businessman [[Ihor Kolomoyskyi]].

In 2018, FC Dnipro was forced into bankruptcy by [[FIFA]] due to multiple legal claims for failing to pay the promised monetary compensation to players and managers. [[SC Dnipro-1]] formerly existed as an unofficial successor.<ref name="sportarena.com">Oles Khorunzhyi. ''[https://sportarena.com/football/upl/dnepr-1-podtverdil-chto-fifa-otklonila-isk-kankavy-i/ SC Dnipro-1 confirmed that FIFA dismissed the claim of Jaba Kankava and did not recognize the club a successor of Dnipro (Днепр-1 подтвердил, что ФИФА отклонила иск Канкавы и не признала клуб правопреемником Днепра)]''. Sport Arena. 23 February 2021.</ref>

The club was founded in 1918. During the Soviet era, the club was a member of the Soviet Volunteer Sports Society "Metallurg" (therefore it carried names Metallurg/Metalurh and Stal) and until 1961 was under sponsorship of the Petrovsky Dnipropetrovsk Metallurgical Plant. After that, the club was sponsored by the Southern Machine-building Plant [[Yuzhmash]] and carried both names Russian '''Dnepr''' and Ukrainian '''Dnipro''', while Dnepr was also used for international competitions. During the Soviet era, the club was the second most successful club, based in Ukraine, that participated in the [[Soviet Top League]], winning in [[1983 Soviet Top League|1983]] and [[1988 Soviet Top League|1988]]. After the [[fall of the Soviet Union]], the club was privatized.

==History==

===BRIT===
The club was formed in 1918 by the Petrovsky factory and was called BRIT (Brianskyi Robitnychyi Industrialnyi Tekhnikum). The team participated in the regional competition, the [[Dnipro|Katerynoslav]] championship. BRIT played its games in the "Sokil" stadium, a small venue located at the corner of Pushkin and Yuriy Savchenko streets, which it shared with four other clubs.

===Petrovets&nbsp;– Stal&nbsp;– Metalurh===
With the outbreak of World War I, BRIT was disbanded until 9 May 1925, when a new team was formed in Dnipropetrovsk. The team participated during the first season under the name ''Petrovsky factory,'' which was changed in 1926 to "Petrovets." The team entered the first [[Soviet Union|Soviet]] competition under the name of ''Stal'' (steel) in 1936, participating in three championships before World War II. In 1947, the team re-entered the Soviet competition after merging with another club from Dnipropetrovsk, [[FC Dynamo Dnipropetrovsk|Dynamo Dnipropetrovsk]]. From 1949 until 1961, the team was called ''Metalurh'' ("metal worker"). From 1950 to 1952, it was relegated to amateur status due to poor results. In 1954, ''Metalurh Dnipropetrovsk'' reached the semi-finals of the [[USSR Cup]], where it lost to [[FC Ararat Yerevan|Spartak Yerevan]].

===Dnepr / Dnipro===
In 1961, the team was handed over to its new sponsor, the ''[[Yuzhmash|Yugmash]]'' (the Southern machine-producing factory), which at that time was one of the most powerful factories in the entire Soviet Union and was funded by the [[Minister of Defence of the Soviet Union|Ministry of Defense]]. It was part of the [[Zenit (sports society)|Zenit volunteer sports society]]. The new sponsor changed the team's name to ''Dnepr/Dnipro'' after the [[Dnieper]] River. For the All-Union competitions such as [[Soviet Cup]] and the [[Soviet Top League]] as well as the international competitions there was used Russian version of the name as the Russian was the accepted language of the Soviet Union and the Soviet government, while at republican level (within the [[Ukrainian SSR]]) Ukrainian version of the name was used. The team's performance did not change much until after 1968, when ''Dnepr'' obtained [[Andriy Biba]] and the new coach&nbsp;– [[Valery Lobanovsky]]. After that, it took the team three years to get promoted to the Soviet Top League and eventually finished in sixth place in 1972.

===Golden generation===
In 1973 and 1976, Dnepr reached the semi-finals of the USSR Cup. In 1978, the team was relegated to the lower league for two years. Their next return to the top flight was not as inviting as their first one and the team languished at the bottom of the table for several years. In the following years, the governing body of the team hired new promising coaches&nbsp;– ''Volodymyr Yemets'' and ''Hennadiy Zhizdik''. After those changes, ''Dnepr'' became a strong contender for the [[Soviet Top League|Soviet championship]] winning it twice: once with Yemets and Zhizdik in 1983, and another one with [[Evgeny Kucherevsky|Yevhen Kucherevsky]] in 1988. Also, in 1989 ''Dnepr'' became the first professional football club in the Soviet Union. During those years, the team featured many notable players such as [[Oleg Protasov]], [[Hennadiy Lytovchenko]], [[Oleksiy Cherednyk]] and [[Oleh Taran]].

===Ukrainian independence===
Just before the collapse of the Soviet Union, in 1989 the club was transformed into a professional football club instead of the Soviet "team of masters", a process through which all Soviet teams of masters went through. The club joined the [[Football Federation of Ukraine|football federation of the native country]] and remained one of the top contenders in the newly formed [[Ukrainian Premier League]]. The team received a silver medal in 1993, as well as the bronze in 1992, 1995, 1996, 2001 and 2004. The team also reached the [[Ukrainian Cup]] finals in 1995, 1997 and 2004, losing all three to [[FC Shakhtar Donetsk|Shakhtar Donetsk]]. In the beginning of the 1990s the control of the club took over a native of [[Rivne]] [[Ihor Bakai]] with his "Respublika" corporation who earlier in the 1980s was governor of the [[SKA Karpaty Lviv]] training center, part of the [[Carpathian Military District]].<ref name=stange>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170714065501/http://football.ua/ownshirt/events/176015-vy-popaly-v-shtangu.html "Вы попали в штангу"]. football.ua (archived version). 9 September 2012</ref> Bakai who invited [[Bernd Stange]] to Dnipro became first who hired foreign manager to head the former Soviet club.<ref name=stange/> At that time Bakai was a member of the [[Verkhovna Rada]] (Ukrainian parliament) and a chairman of the Intergaz corporation which had exclusive rights of importing gas to Ukraine from [[Turkmenistan]] and in Ukraine was unofficially referred to as the "Gaz King".<ref name=stange/> The experience of the former manager of [[East Germany national football team]] Bernd Stange in [[Dnipro]] was described in the biographic book that was published in Germany in 2004 "Trainer zwischen den Welten. Bernd Stange" (Coach between the Worlds. Bernd Stange).<ref>[https://www.tagesspiegel.de/potsdam/potsdam-kultur/trainer-zwischen-den-welten-7730524.html Kultur: Trainer zwischen den Welten] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230731164619/https://www.tagesspiegel.de/potsdam/potsdam-kultur/trainer-zwischen-den-welten-7730524.html |date=31 July 2023 }}. www.tagesspiegel.de. 17 April 2004</ref>

During the summer of 1996 Dnipro initiated "repositioning" of its best players along with Bernd Stange to CSKA-Borysfen which in the previous season placed 4th just behind Dnipro.<ref name=stange/> Among those players were [[Oleksandr Yevtushok]], [[Viktor Skrypnyk]], [[Serhiy Kovalets]], [[Serhiy Mizin]], [[Andriy Polunin]], [[Serhiy Nahornyak]], [[Volodymyr Sharan]], [[Oleksandr Palyanytsya]].<ref name=stange/> However, just few day before the start of the [[1996–97 Ukrainian Premier League|1996–97]] season in Ukrainian Vyshcha Liha (Higher League), on the joint session of the Professional Football League (PFL) and the Football Federation of Ukraine (FFU), [[FC Arsenal Kyiv|CSKA-Borysfen]] was taken away from its original owners and handed over to Mikhail Grinshpon ("Kiev-Donbass")<ref name=stange/> connected with [[Semion Mogilevich]].<ref>[https://kompromat1.press/articles/104682-otkupitcja_li_grinshpon_ot_nabu Откупится ли Гриншпон от НАБУ?] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230731191647/https://kompromat1.press/articles/104682-otkupitcja_li_grinshpon_ot_nabu |date=31 July 2023 }}. kompromat1.press</ref> With the transfer of Dnipro players falling completely through, players ended up in danger of missing a season.<ref name=stange/>

===Success and downfall===
On 14 May 2015, Dnipro qualified for the [[2015 UEFA Europa League Final]] by defeating [[S.S.C. Napoli|Napoli]] 1–0 in Ukraine after having drawn 1–1 in Italy, the first time in the club's history that it reached the final in a European competition.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/may/14/dnipro-napoli-europa-league-semi-final-second-leg-match-report|title=Dnipro's Yevhen Seleznyov sinks Napoli to seal Europa League final place|date=14 May 2015|work=Guardian|access-date=15 May 2015|archive-date=27 May 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150527140504/http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/may/14/dnipro-napoli-europa-league-semi-final-second-leg-match-report|url-status=live}}</ref> Despite going up 1–0 in the sixth minute against Spanish side Sevilla, Dnipro eventually lost 3–2.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/32908634|title=Dnipro 2 Sevilla 3|date=28 May 2015|work=BBC Sport|access-date=28 May 2015|archive-date=28 May 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150528055513/http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/32908634|url-status=live}}</ref> Despite the defeat, the match crowned one of the club's greatest seasons, during which Dnipro had to play all of their home matches some 400 kilometres away in [[Kyiv]] due to the conflict in eastern Ukraine.<ref>{{cite web|title=Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk&nbsp;– Angels amidst War : "During the entire course of the campaign, FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk had to play all of their home matches some 400 kilometres away in Kyiv due to the war.

In late June 2016, there were rumours that club owner [[Ihor Kolomoyskyi]] had stopped funding the club.<ref name="FC Dnipro not bankrupt">{{cite web |url=http://en.interfax.com.ua/news/sport/353587.html |title=Dnipro football team will not be liquidated, but revamped – Kolomoisky |publisher=[[Interfax-Ukraine]] |date=30 June 2016 |access-date=30 June 2016 |archive-date=14 July 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160714205414/http://en.interfax.com.ua/news/sport/353587.html |url-status=live }}</ref> Kolomoyskyi immediately denied this but did state, "The club will not exist in the same form as before;" and that it was "not normal to spend crazy amounts of money" to keep the current squad intact.<ref name="FC Dnipro not bankrupt"/>

The 2016–17 season was disastrous for Dnipro. Due to outstanding debts owed to coach [[Juande Ramos]] and his staff, the FFU prevented Dnipro from signing new players other than free agents. On 26 October 2016, Dnipro was assessed a penalty of 6 points for the same reason. In April 2017, 3 additional points were deducted. At the conclusion of the 2016–2017 season, Dnipro were relegated directly to the [[Ukrainian Second League]] (third level) for the first time in club history.

In the 2017–18 season, the club with a new squad started well in the Group B of the Second League, for 13 matches in row going on high positions (second-fourth places). But the points have been deducted once more with their number reaching up to 18 until the end of the season, which resulted in club finishing on 8th place.

On 7 June 2018, FIFA decided to once more relegate the club and for the [[2018–19 Ukrainian Football Amateur League#Group 3|2018–19 season]] the club was to play 
in the [[Ukrainian Amateur Football Championship|Amateur League]].<ref name="dnipra_n565080">{{cite web|url=https://football24.ua/kolomoyskiy_anonsuvav_vidnovlennya_dnipra_n565080|title=Kolomoisky announced the restoration of the Dnieper|publisher=football24.ua|date=21 October 2019|access-date=8 January 2020|language=uk|archive-date=8 March 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210308153709/https://football24.ua/kolomoyskiy_anonsuvav_vidnovlennya_dnipra_n565080/|url-status=live}}</ref> In the [[2019–20 Ukrainian Football Amateur League|2019–20 Amateur League]] the club did not participate.<ref name="dnipra_n565080"/><ref>Yuriy Samotkan.

===Stadiums===
{{Main|Meteor Stadium|Dnipro Arena}}
[[File:Meteor Stadium.jpg|200px|thumb|Old [[Meteor Stadium]]]]

Since 1966, Dnipro's home was [[Meteor Stadium]] in Dnipropetrovsk. Prior to that, the club played at the Metalurh Stadium (formerly Stal Stadium). Meteor Stadium was built by the Soviet rocket company [[Yuzhmash]] on the original site and has undergone several renovations since, the last one being in 2001. In 2002, however, after several spells in European competitions, it became clear that the club needed a new modern venue. Thus, in 2005, Pryvat Group started construction of [[Dnipro-Arena|Dnipro Arena]] in the centre of the city. The club played its last game at Meteor on 2 September 2008, against [[Metalist Kharkiv]].

In April 2005, the club's new arena broke ground. It was constructed by Germany's largest construction company [[Hochtief]]. The construction itself took three years and four months, but a nine-month delay occurred due to a land dispute over a site where the stadium's car park was planned. The stadium's final capacity is 31,003 people and the initial estimated cost of the construction was set at €40&nbsp;million.

The stadium was opened on 15 September 2008. The opening ceremony featured a speech by [[President of Ukraine|Ukrainian president]] [[Viktor Yushchenko]], a concert performance by a number of famous Ukrainian musicians and two football matches: Veterans of [[FC Dynamo Kyiv|Dynamo Kyiv]] vs. [[FC Spartak Moscow|Spartak Moscow]] veterans, and Dnipro against Dynamo Kyiv. As a gift to the club from the city, the street that the stadium is situated on was renamed into Kucherevskyi Boulevard, in honour of Dnipro's late coach [[Yevhen Kucherevskyi]]. Dnipro played their first official game on 29 September 2008 against their local rivals [[FC Metalurh Zaporizhya|Metalurh Zaporizhya]], but Dnipro lost 1–2. They set a new attendance record for the Ukrainian Premier League [[Ukrainian Premier League 2008–09|2008–09 season]] at 31,000 spectators.

Since the beginning of the [[Russo-Ukrainian War]], Dnipro have played their European matches at the [[Olimpiyskiy National Sports Complex|Olympic Stadium]] in [[Kyiv]] at the behest of [[UEFA]], although there has been comparatively less conflict in Dnipropetrovsk than other areas.<ref>{{cite news|title=Dnipro qualifier moved to Kiev|url=https://www.espnfc.com/uefa-champions-league/story/1957894/uefa-orders-dnipro-dnipropetrovsk-to-play-copenhagen-champions-league-game-in-kiev|access-date=15 May 2015|agency=[[Press Association]]|publisher=ESPN|date=23 July 2014|archive-date=23 May 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150523054847/http://www.espnfc.com/uefa-champions-league/story/1957894/uefa-orders-dnipro-dnipropetrovsk-to-play-copenhagen-champions-league-game-in-kiev|url-status=live}}</ref>

==Supporters and rivalries==
The first fan club in Dnipropetrovsk (today [[Dnipro]]) was officially registered by the city executive committee (ispolkom) on 25 July 1968.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170714084749/http://football.ua/ownshirt/events/160313-pervyjj-klub-bolelshhykov.html Первый клуб болельщиков]. football.ua. 23 March 2012</ref> Before registration, the initiative group brought its draft of the fan's club statute and program to the regional committee of the [[Communist Party of the Soviet Union]], department in control of development and propaganda of physical culture and sport in the region which imposed a resolution of approval with a signature, seal and date. Later the group met with the Dnipro head coach Leonid Rodos and his assistant.

The formation of the fan movement in Dnipropetrovsk began in the early 1980s, which saw the appearance of the first representatives of Dnipro ultras at the stadium. Later was established one of the largest fans unions&nbsp;– the ''Braty po Zbroyi'' ({{langx|en| Brothers in Arms}})&nbsp;– involving Dnipro, [[FC Dynamo Kyiv|Dynamo Kyiv]] and [[FC Karpaty Lviv|Karpaty Lviv]].

Most of the fans hold right-wing ideological views ([[Ukrainian nationalism]]). Dnipro is considered the third most popular club in Ukraine, and home and away matches are attended by large crowds. The largest Dnipro ultras groups are the  ''Voice of the North Stand'' ({{langx|uk|Рупор Північної Трибуни}}) and ''Ultras'83'' ({{langx|uk|Ультрас'}}83).

The most famous derby in eastern Ukraine is the ''Skhidne Derby'' (English: Eastern Derby) between Dnipro and [[FC Metalist Kharkiv|Metalist Kharkiv]]. The game at the stadium is very hard and almost every game ends in a fight between football fans from Dnipropetrovsk and [[Kharkiv]]. There was also a city derby in Dnipropetrovsk between Dnipro and [[FC Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih (1959–2013)|Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih]]. In May 2016, Metalist Kharkiv was removed from Ukraine's professional football leagues.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ffu.org.ua/ukr/ffu/about/ffu_news/15094/ |trans-title=The FFU Appeal Committee decline appeals of Hoverla and Metalist |publisher=[[Football Federation of Ukraine]] |date=16 May 2016 |access-date=16 May 2016 |script-title=uk:Апеляційний комітет ФФУ відхилив апеляції "Металіста" та "Говерли" |url-status=bot: unknown |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160516130830/http://www.ffu.org.ua/ukr/ffu/about/ffu_news/15094/ |archive-date=16 May 2016  |language=uk }}</ref> Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih is, after its 2013 bankruptcy, an amateur club.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.interfax.co.uk/ukraine-news/fc-kryvbas-launches-bankruptcy-procedure/ |title=FC Kryvbas launches bankruptcy procedure |publisher=[[Interfax-Ukraine]] |date=12 June 2013 |access-date=9 December 2016 |archive-date=16 June 2013 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130616013839/http://www.interfax.co.uk/ukraine-news/fc-kryvbas-launches-bankruptcy-procedure/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{in lang|uk}} [https://web.archive.org/web/20160422200255/http://kryvbas.dp.ua/publ/7-1-0-913 Gen.Director of Kryvbas: The team has marvelous chances to start playing in the PFL already this summer].

==European history==
{{main|FC Dnipro in European football}}
FC Dnipro participates in European competitions since 1984 after playing its first against [[Trabzonspor]]. Since 2001, however, the club participates almost on annual basis with variable successes. This was interrupted in 2016, when, despite finishing third place, Dnipro was forbidden to play in the European competitions by UEFA.
