FC Torpedo Mogilev is a Belarusian football club based in Mogilev.

History

Torpedo Mogilev was formed in 1959 although there are debates about an earlier date of the club’s origin. In 1962–63 the team under the name “Kirovets” played in Belarus SSR League and only in 1979 entered the Belarus SSR top league again. They were third in 1979 and won their only championship title in 1982.

The team began playing in Belarusian Premier League in 1992. The first two seasons were most successful when they finished 7th (1992) and 8th (1992–93). After that Torpedo could not get higher than 11th and mostly were struggling against relegation.

In 1996 Torpedo were renamed to Torpedo-Kadino Mogilev. In 2000 the team finished 15th and were relegated to Belarusian First League. After playing 5 seasons in the First League (2001–2005), Torpedo-Kadino was disbanded.

The most famous team’s players were the Olypmic champion and a defender of FC Spartak Moscow and Borussia Dortmund Sergei Gorlukovich, Igor Kriushenko, Andrey Skorobogatko, Aleksandr Sednev, Vyacheslav Geraschenko, Oleg Kubarev, Eduard Baltrushevich, and others.

In 2014 due to the support of Steel Line company the club was reformed with original name Torpedo Mogilev to play in Mogilev City league, and in 2015 the club joined Belarusian Second League.
