In 2012 the stadium was leased to then highest playing (in Ukraine's top professional league, the Ukrainian Premier League) regional football club FC Hoverla Uzhhorod for the following 20 years.[4] After Hoverla Uzhhorod ceased to exist following the 2015–16 Ukrainian Premier League season, this contract expired in May 2017 and was not renewed.[2][5]
In 2020 professional football matches at the highest level (of Ukraine) returned to the stadium since FC Mynai plays its home matches in the stadium.[1] But this club relegated back to the Ukrainian First League after finishing second to last in the 2023–24 season; after four seasons in the top flight.[6]
In 2020 the stadium was recertified to hold matches of the national football team of Ukraine.[1] Currently the stadium is owned primarily by the municipal government.[1]
