On 5 July 2016, Ararat announced that they would host Persian Gulf Pro League club Esteghlal on 7 July.[1]

On 15 July, Raffi Kaya left Ararat to sign for Swiss club Stade Nyonnais, whilst also announcing the signing of Nassim Aaron Kpehia and Brahima Bruno Koné from Mika.[2]

On 1 August, Ararat announced the signings of Aram Ayrapetyan, Argishti Petrosyan, Hakob and Aram Loretsyan, Karen Avoyan, Happy Simelela and Kouadio Brou.[3] Two days later, Ararat also signed Marat Daudov, Gevorg Poghosyan and Rafael Ghazaryan.[4]

On 6 August 2016, Arkady Andreasyan was appointed as the club's manager in early August 2016.[5]

On 14 October, Ararat announced that they had terminated their contracts with Happy Simelela, Kouadio Brou, Pol Asu Oshi and Brahima Bruno Koné by mutual consent.[6] Two weeks later, Ararat also announced they had terminated their contracts with Souleymane Kone, Oumarou Kaina and Kyrian Nwabueze, also by mutual consent.[7]

On 20 December, Ararat announced wholesale changes to their squad, with Erik Nazaryan, Gor Poghosyan, Revik Yeghiazaryan, David Minasyan, Andranik Kocharyan and Edgar Mkrtchyan all signing for the club, whilst Petros Ter-Petrosyan, Aram Loretsyan, Davit Markosyan and Nassim Aaron Kpehia all left the club.[8]

In February 2017, Ararat moved their home games from the Republican Stadium to Mika Stadium due to renovation work that was needed to be carried out at the Republican Stadium.[9]
