History

Sabah were formed on 8 September 2017, joining the Azerbaijan First Division for the 2017–18 season, in which they finished 5th. After the four teams above them in the league failed or decline promotion, Sabah were granted a license to participate in Azerbaijan Premier League on 12 May 2018.[1] Sabah's first game in the Azerbaijan Premier League was against Keşla on 12 August 2018, a game they won 1-0 thanks to a Marko Dević goal. Sabah went on to finish their first Premier League season in 7th position, avoiding relegation.[citation needed]

On 16 September 2019, Elshad Ahmadov resigned as manager with Igor Ponomaryov taking over on an interim basis.[citation needed]

On 26 November 2019, Sabah announced that Željko Sopić had been appointed manager on an 18-month contract.[2] On 3 July 2020, Sopić resigned as manager.[3]

On 10 July 2020, Sabah signed 2 years contract with Vicente Gómez.[4]
