FC Minsk

FC Minsk is a Belarusian professional football club based in Minsk, formed in 2006 on the base of the First League club Smena Minsk, whose licence it took over. The club's colours are red and navy blue, and it changed its crest to the current design in 2013.

After winning promotion to the Belarusian Premier League in its first First League season, it was relegated in 2007 but returned the following year and has remained in the top tier since. A 2010 third-place finish led to its first European campaign in the 2011–12 UEFA Europa League.
