Metalurh Donetsk / Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk case

After the previous season the president of FC Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk announced that the club will be merged with FC Metalurh Donetsk and replace them in the Premier League for the 2015–16 season[4] due to the fact that both clubs are owned by the Industrial Union of Donbas (ISD).[5] On 11 July 2015, the owners of FC Metalurh Donetsk have sent a letter to the Football Federation of Ukraine announcing their withdrawal from the competitions.[6] Right before the start of competitions it was uncertain which club will replace Metalurh either FC Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk or FC Illichivets Mariupol.[7][8] On 14 July 2015, the administration of Illichivets released a letter explaining its reason why the club should remain in the league.[9] Due to the fact that the Premier League members did not manage to gather a quorum, on 16 July 2015, the Football Federation of Ukraine Executive Committee voted on to include Stal to the Premier League (29 for, 7 against and 1 abstain).[10][11]

Metalurh Zaporizhzhia case

On 7 October 2015, FC Metalurh Zaporizhzhia petitioned to the Premier League to withdraw the club from the competition's participation due to the lack of financing.[12] On 24 November 2015, Metalurh Zaporizhzhia informed the Premier League about decision of a deliberate assembly of the Metalurh Zaporizhzhia members in regards to liquidation of the club. On 2 March 2016, the Premier League cancelled the 17th-round game for Metalurh Zaporizhzhia due to the fact that there are only four players were registered for the second half and only five more are allowed to be registered outside of a transfer window. Also the club failed to inform the league and the visiting team about place and time of the upcoming game.[12]

On 13 March 2016, it was announced that the club's academy the Sports School Metalurh, was handed over to the city authorities after the liquidation of the club.[13]

On 7 April 2016, another Zaporizhzhia city club "Rosso Nero" successfully changed its name to Metalurh Zaporizhzhia[14] and will participate in the 2016 Ukrainian Football Amateur League.[15]

Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk scandal

On 19 November 2015,[16][17] there was appointed a new president of the club Vardan Israelian as the previous president Maksym Zavhorodniy changed his place of work.[18] In a protest of appointing Vardan Israelian, the club's vice-president Mykola Kolyuchy resigned[19] and replaced with Bohdan Napolov.[20] On 24 December 2015, took place a meeting of members of FC Stal Dniprodzerzhynsk which decided discontinue contract with its U-19 team due to "a lack of patriotism" as well as liquidate contracts with number of players from the U-21 who were involved in corruption along with the team's head coach Serhiy Shyshchenko.[21] Israelian informed that during his talk with Mazyar, the latter said that he will not work without Kolyuchy in the club.[22]

Twelve points were deducted initially by FIFA for non-payment of wages owed to former players (Issa Ndoye and Dušan Savić).[45] An additional six points were deducted by the Football Federation of Ukraine due to the club not complying with FIFA directives.[46] On 30 May 2016 some Ukrainian media announced that Volyn was issued the attestation for the next season without financial guarantees.[47][48] Later same day a FFU representative confirmed that Volyn managed to provide financial guarantees and made all required pre pays on time.[49]

Metalurh Zaporizhia were expelled from the competition after the winter break.

Also the club failed to inform the league and the visiting team about place and time of the upcoming game.[12]
