Association football club in Voluntari
Football club
Fotbal Club Voluntari (Romanian pronunciation: [volunˈtarʲ] FC Voluntari or simply Voluntari , is a Romanian professional football club based in Voluntari , Ilfov County , that competes in the Liga II , the second tier of the Romanian league system .
Founded in 2010, Voluntari played in the Liga I between the 2015–16 season and the 2023–24 seasons . It claimed its first major honour the 2016–17 campaign , after defeating Astra Giurgiu in the penalty shootout of the Cupa României final, and went on to win the Supercupa României the same year .
Voluntari's home ground is the Anghel Iordănescu Stadium , which has a capacity of 4,600 people.
History [ edit ]
Early years [ edit ]
FC Voluntari was founded in the summer of 2010 and enrolled directly in the Liga III , after acquiring the berth of Petrolul Berca.[2]
During their debut season in the third league, Ilfovenii finished in sixth place with Romeo Bunică as a head coach, and repeated the performance the next season with Bogdan Andone in charge. The 2012–13 season began with poor performances and after five rounds Andone was replaced by Bunică, who led the team to the seventh place.[3]
Adrian Iencsi led Voluntari to winning the 2013–14 Liga III en fanfare , but despite the Liga II promotion, Iencsi was sacked and replaced for the next year by Ilie Poenaru .[4] Farul Constanța and CF Brăila , and then qualified to the Liga I from the first place via the promotion play-offs.[citation needed
Promotion to the first division [ edit ]
Voluntari earned promotion for the first time in their history to Liga I , the highest tier of Romanian football , at the end of the 2014–15 campaign . Its debut season was difficult, as many technical and administrative changes led the club to the relegation zone. Finishing 12th, the team faced a promotion/relegation play-off against UTA Arad , which it won 3–1 on aggregate and maintained its place in the Liga I.[5]
With experienced players such as Vasile Maftei , Florin Cernat or Laurențiu Marinescu in the starting eleven, Voluntari improved itself in the 2016–17 season , finishing in ninth place and avoiding a second consecutive promotion/relegation play-off. During that year, the club achieved its biggest achievement so far by winning the Cupa României over Astra Giurgiu , being the first major trophy in its brief history.[6]
Stadium [ edit ]

The club plays its home matches at the 4,600-seater Stadionul Anghel Iordănescu in Voluntari . Attendances are usually modest, as Voluntari is considered a suburb of Bucharest and many of its citizens are inclined to support clubs from the capital instead.[citation needed
