FC Sokol Saratov is a Russian football club from the city of Saratov, competing in the Russian First League (FNL). The club has a complex history with several name changes and reformations, with the current iteration aiming to revive football in the city. Their home is the Lokomotiv Stadium. Saratov has a strong football tradition, and Sokol carries the hopes of the local fans to see a team from their city return to the Russian Premier League, a level they haven't graced in many years. The club's journey in the FNL is challenging, competing against well-funded rivals. However, with strong community support, Sokol's objective is to build a stable and competitive project that can eventually achieve promotion and restore top-flight football to the historic Volga city.
