FC Akron Tolyatti (Russian: ФК «Акрон» Тольятти) is a Russian professional football club based in Tolyatti founded in 2018 that plays in the Russian Football National League.

History[]

In June 2019, it was confirmed that the club will enter the Russian Professional Football League in the 2019–20 season.[1]

On 15 May 2020, the 2019–20 PFL season was abandoned due to COVID-19 pandemic in Russia. As Akron was leading in their PFL zone at the time, they were promoted to the second-tier FNL for the 2020–21 season.[2]

Akron finished their first FNL season in 17th place, which would normally mean relegation. On 15 May 2021, FNL confirmed that FC Tambov, which placed last in the Premier League and was expected to be relegated to FNL, did not apply for the FNL license for the 2021–22 season and therefore Akron will not be relegated.[3]
