Season events

The club began the season under the name of Avan Academy. At the beginning of 2018, the club was taken over by the Russian-Armenian businessman Samvel Karapetyan who renamed the football club as Ararat-Moskva. The club was reorganized as soon as FC Ararat Moscow in Russia was denied certificate for the next season.[1] Artak Oseyan managed the club during the 2017–18 Armenian First League season.[2]
