Dmytro Zlobenko was removed from the club which with help of the Army was passed to some businessman by name of Mikhail Grinshpon, a president of "Kyiv–Donbass".[25]

Since 1999 FC CSKA–Kyiv was headed by
FC Arsenal Kyiv (2001–2013)
Creation of the club
After the 2000 financial crisis at CSKA, the club, as a state company of the Sports Committee of Ministry of Defense, had its budget cut and was on the brink of being dissolved.[28] On 9 October 2001 Oleksandr Danylchuk was calling rumours and populistic claims when commenting on the declarations about CSKA Kyiv will become Arsenal Kyiv.[29] Transferring of CSKA under jurisdiction of the city authorities is not taking placing.[29] There is no "Arsenal".[29] Not me, nor the Ministry of Defense will make any kind of deal.[29] The words of Oleksandr Omelchenko have no actual confirmations.[29] There is no any commercial entities and no people's deputies who participate in creation of "Arsenal".[29] Those are all empty talks that take place not one year already.[29] During that time, the city did not invest a single dime in the club.[29]
On 19 October 2001 after a meeting with the deputy minister Ivan Bizhan, the city mayor Oleksandr Omelchenko and the CSKA honorary president Oleksandr Danylchuk, it was decided to create on the base of the Army team a new entity, Arsenal Kyiv.[30] On the proposition of CSKA–Kyiv (part of "Unіsport Consaltіng Ltd"), in the same day the Kyiv city mayor Oleksandr Omelchenko issued an order on constituting a limited liability company FC Arsenal Kyiv where 51% of the company owned by the Kyiv city community.[31][32][33] The other 49% was still owned by the Ministry of Defense and CSKA as a company.[31][32][34] On 8 November 2001 the Kyiv City Council adopted the decision on the creation of the club and increase the constituent fund to 80% (₴9,440), while the other 20% (₴2,360) belonged to other members of the company.[35][36] The First League second team CSKA-2 Kyiv continued to be affiliated with the Ministry of Defense and once again became the primary team of the Army football club, FC CSKA Kyiv.
Arsenal was created as the Kyiv's city team and fully funded by the Kyiv City Administration with an annual budget of ₴40 million (~US$8 million).
While under the city government's ownership, Arsenal struggled financially, resorting to loaning many of its first team's squad players. Soon after election of a new mayor Leonid Chernovetskyi, the city had decreased funding to the club significantly as it sought to reduce its numerous sports holdings and on 13 July 2006 adopted a decision to sell it at auction scheduled on 14 November 2006 and starting at ₴1.1 million.[39] Preparations to sell the club started earlier and no later than 1 June 2006.[40] The initial auction failed to occur and was rescheduled, while the starting was lowered to ₴770,000.[41] In May 2007, it was announced that the club would be demoted due to financial issues, however soon afterwards it was revealed that Arsenal would be purchased by Ukrainian oligarch, Vadim Rabinovich. The new owner started actively financing the club and its transfers. In January 2009 the Mayor of Kyiv Leonid Chernovetskyi bought Arsenal Kyiv for ₴1 from Rabynovich; Chernovetskiy's 30-year-old son Stepan became the club's president. On 20 January 2009 in the newspaper "Ukraynskyi futbol" appeared a "satirical" article about the club's purchase "There will be stadiums on Mars" (На Марсі будуть стадіони?!), which told that the financial transaction of the club was connected with a real estate around the Ukrainian capital.[42] Upon the purchase, the club's situation was critical and there were talks about merger with another Kyiv's club Obolon.[42] The following year Rabinovich bought the club back due to the poor management.
Its European competition season in 2001–02, the club played under the brand of CSKA while de facto for the whole year was known as Arsenal.
Bankruptcy in 2013
In 2013, after selling of the club by Rabinovich to Onyshchenko, there started a promotional campaign for revival of historical heritage of another Sports Club Arsenal Kyiv that used to exist at the Kyiv Arsenal Factory trying to connect the old sports club of 1925 with the newly created club of 2001.
In January 2013, the owner Rabynovych stated that the club could be liquidated.
On 15 November 2013, FC Shakhtar Donetsk Chairman Rinat Akhmetov announced that after financial help from the other teams in the league; the Arsenal squad would be able to complete its 2013–14 Ukrainian Premier League season.[48] But the next day Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk refused to (re)play the (16th round) match Arsenal had earlier failed to appear for (due to its bankruptcy).[48] On 21 November 2013, the FFU Control and Disciplinary Committee adopted its decision to disqualify "Arsenal" in accordance to the regulation statement about failure to show for two calendar (scheduled) games.[49]
FC Arsenal-Kyiv (2014–2019)
Reorganization in 2014
The Arsenal team that was re-founded in 2001 went
In January 2014 an initiative group of former club players and fans with the help of Kyiv businessman and rally driver
After its last game of the 2014 Kyiv city championship on 9 November 2014, which was won by FC Arsenal-Kyiv, the club's president Kikireshko announced that the club submitted a preliminary application on participation in the Ukrainian Second League for the 2015–16 Ukrainian Second League season.[52] It was accepted.[53]
The club appointed Andriy Annenkov in February 2014,[54] but he resigned after an unsuccessful start to a new season on 8 August 2015.[55]
Return to the Ukrainian Premier League
In February 2018, it became known that a new president of the club and its co-owner became the club's former player from Croatia Ivica Pirić.[56] The other 50% of the club belong to a former football referee Oleksandr Moskalenko.[57][58]
On 28 April 2018, FC Arsenal Kyiv announced that since the next season it could be called FC Arsenal-CSKA Kyiv.[59] Later the club's director Oleksandr Moskalenko told that the club will play at Bannikov Stadium if it gets promoted to the 2018–19 Ukrainian Premier League.[60] The stadium however does not meet the league's threshold requirements for the minimum capacity.[60]
During the winter of 2018–19 FC Arsenal-Kyiv was involved in business conflict over its home base which is connected with the Russian financial institution Sberbank.[61] FC Arsenal-Kyiv shares its home base in Shchaslyve with the Shakhtar football academy.[61]
