In Soviet times, the club played under the name "Metalurgi" (Rustavi), then during the independence of Georgia, the club was called "Gorda" (Rustavi) and FC Rustavi.

After FC Tbilisi merged with club FC Rustavi in 2006, FC Olimpi Rustavi was established.

History

Football in Rustavi could be traced back to Metallurg Rustavi in the Soviet era. The club was a member of Umaglesi Liga until relegation in 2003. In order to get back to the top division, the club merged with FC Tbilisi and as Olimpi Rustavi occupied their seat in Umaglesi Liga. In 2007, the team won their first Georgian Premier League title,[1] followed by the second top title three years later.[2] In the same season they recorded an unbeaten run consisting of 27 league matches.[3] Olimpi won the Super Cup as well.

For the 2011–12 season the club changed its name to Metalurgi Rustavi.

The 2014–15 season turned out critical.[4] Amid a severe financial crisis Metalurgi were relegated.[5]

For the last time the club played in Regionuli Liga, the lowest tier of Georgian football system, in 2015–16 and was subsequently declared bankrupt. A new Rustavi club emerged representing the city in Liga 2, although they did not have any legal connections.[6]
