FC Zenit Irkutsk (Russian: «Зенит» (Иркутск)) is a defunct Russian football team from Irkutsk. It was founded in 2003 and participated in amateur competitions. Before the 2016–17 season, it was licensed to play in the third-tier Russian Professional Football League after another Irkutsk team, FC Baikal Irkutsk, failed to get a license. On 1 April 2021, the club announced that they will be dissolved due to lack of financing.[1]

From 2010 to 2013, it was called FC Zenit-Rekord Irkutsk.
