The club became a member of Regionuli Liga, where they spent next four seasons. Following the first year, when Khikhani achieved their main goal, in 2018 the team faced worsening financial problems.

In March 2021, Khikhani played their last matches both in the Cup and league tournaments and suspended their activities.
