The club was founded as Lokomotiv Krasnoyarsk in 1937 and spent one season in the Class D of Soviet league. In 1957 the club was reinstated under the same name and entered the Far East zone of Class B. In 1968 Lokomotiv was renamed Rassvet, in 1970 Avtomobilist. In 1991 the club received a new name, Metallurg. Since February, 2010 it has been renamed Metallurg-Yenisey (formally, Metallurg was excluded from the league and a new independent club Metallurg-Yenisey was admitted into the league).[1] In 2011, the club was renamed to Yenisey.[2]
Yenisey (or their predecessors) never played in the Soviet Top League or Russian Premier League. Their best result in Soviet League was a 2nd position in Group 7 of Class B in 1959, while their best result in Russian history was the 9th position in Russian First Division in 2001. Since the inception of Russian football, the club suffered four relegations to the Second Division, latest in 2006.
