History Edit
The club was founded in 2010 as Sumgayit FK. In May 2011, the team secured their promotion to Azerbaijan Premier League after getting wildcard place instead of defunct Absheron.[2] After securing promotion to the Premier League, the club based most of their squad on players from Azerbaijan's U-19 and U-17 players.[3] In January 2012, the club announced that its old name was being restored.[4]
During 2012–13 season, Sumgayit narrowly avoided relegation to the First Division by finishing 10th in the league.
In the 2017-18 season, they were the only team in the league consisting solely of Azerbaijani players.
On 15 January 2019, Sumgayit announced they had signed a cooperation with Tractor Sazi.[5]
