History

Prior to 1984 the club colors were yellow and black. They played for 11 seasons on the top-level of Turkish football. Their best result was finishing 1st League (Now Super Lig) as 3rd in 1987–88 season.[3] The club was the first team from the Eastern Anatolia Region to qualify for a European cup, 2003–04 UEFA Cup. They relegated to amateur level after the matches of 31 March 2011. At the end of the 2011–2012 season the club finally relegated to Malatya First Amateur League after five successive relegations due to financial mismanagement.[4]

Malatyaspor managed three times to qualify for the semi-finals of the Turkish Cup: 1987, 1989 and 2003.
