Club Sportiv Municipal 1932 Cetatea Suceava, commonly known as CSM Cetatea Suceava or Cetatea Suceava, is a Romanian football club based in Suceava, Suceava County, currently playing in Liga II, the second tier of Romanian football.

The club was originally established in 1932 under the name Cetatea Sucevei and, over time, was reorganized several times, using different names such as Chimia Suceava, CSM Suceava, or Cetatea Suceava, among others. Re-established in the summer of 2024, Cetatea achieved back-to-back promotions from Liga IV Suceava County to Liga II in 2025 and 2026.[1][2]

History

[edit]

First years of football (1932–1949)

[edit]

Cetatea Suceava was originally established in 1932, under the name of Cetatea Sucevei, name inspired by the Medieval Seat Fortress of Suceava. The first team of Suceava included players such as Lazăr Andrian, Fleghel, Ioanițchi, Cosmovici, N. Scobeniuc, Marcean, A. Scobeniuc, Hariga, Semenov, Cozma, Buliga, Curcă, Schwartz, Curcă, Borosan, Salpeter, and Radu Dan.[3]

Cetatea Sucevei initially competed in the Eastern League Championship, a regional competition. Later, the team participated in the Eastern League of Divizia C, the newly formed third division of Romanian football. Initially, Divizia C’s Eastern League was organized as a single group, but it was later expanded into two groups. During their first season in Divizia C, Cetatea Sucevei finished 7th, last in the Eastern League, and achieved 2nd place in Group II of the Eastern League in the 1937–38 season, while also reaching the Round of 32 in the 1938–39 Cupa României.[4][5]

In 1946, after World War II and the rise of the communist regime, Romanian football underwent drastic changes as the new Soviet model was implemented. This model required all sports associations to align with trade unions or governmental institutions. As a result, Cetatea Sucevei was absorbed into CFR Ițcani, a team from a village that later became a neighbourhood of Suceava.[6][7]

In the 1947–48 season, Suceava was represented in Divizia B by a team named Dinamo, which finished 16th in Series II and was relegated to Divizia C, where it competed in the first half of the 1948–49 season, placing 11th in Series III, before the competition was dissolved in February 1949 and the team returned to the regional championship.[8][9]

From Spartac to CSM (1950–1997)

[edit]

In 1950, another team was founded near the Prodaliment abattoir in the village of Burdujeni (now a neighbourhood of Suceava), named Spartac Burdujeni.[10][11] In the 1953 season, Spartac Burdujeni won the Suceava Regional Championship and qualified for the promotion play-off for Divizia B. However, it finished 5th in Series I, held in Ploiești. Despite this, the second division was expanded the following season, and alongside the four group winners, an additional eight teams (including Spartac) were promoted.

In the 1954 Divizia B season, Spartac finished in 7th place in Series III and ranked 5th in the following season under the guidance of Gheorghe Hedeș. In the 1956 season, the team was renamed Flamura Roșie Burdujeni, finished in 12th place tied on points with Locomotiva Iași, and barely avoided relegation on goal difference.[12]

In 1957, Flamura Roșie Burdujeni was officially relocated to Suceava and renamed Progresul Suceava. This moment was considered a rebirth of Suceava football, after more than a decade of inconsistency, during which the villages of Ițcani and Burdujeni had been better represented. Progresul played in Series II of Divizia B for the next two seasons, finishing 11th in 1957–58, before a new rebranding followed on 12 April 1959, when the club became Victoria Suceava, finishing 12th in the 1958–59 season.[12]

For the next decade, the club experienced a lack of stability, reflected in its frequent name changes and fluctuating results. In 1959–60, under the name Dinamo Suceava, the team played in Series I of Divizia B, finishing 4th, followed by a 6th-place finish in the 1960–61 season. In 1961–62, the club dropped to 13th place and was relegated to the regional championship. Dinamo Suceava quickly returned to national competitions after winning the Suceava Regional Championship in 1962–63, earning promotion to the newly re-established Divizia C, where it finished 3rd in the East Series in 1963–64.[13][12][14]

Renamed Viitorul Suceava in 1964, the team finished 9th in the 1964–65 season, before becoming Chimia Suceava following a takeover by the Combinatul de Celuloză și Hârtie (lit. 'Cellulose and Paper Mill Complex'). In 1965–66, Chimia won its Divizia C series and secured promotion to Divizia B under the guidance of Radu Gologan and Vasile Frânculescu, with a squad that included Sidac, Petcu, Moraru, Vicovan, Gumő, Cotipolis, Arhire, Roșu, Marosi, Borcău, Găinaru, Tudor, Nicolau, Asiminoaiei, Luca, and Belizna.[14][15]

CSM Suceava was founded on 19 July 1972,[16] incorporating the sections of football, track and field, rugby, and volleyball. During the years, more sections were added and offered to its members, among them archery, baseball, boxing, Greco-Roman wrestling, handball, ice hockey, rowing, speed skating, and swimming. The current setup includes archery, boxing, ice hockey, rugby, track and field, volleyball, and wrestling.[17]

Being one of the founding sections, the football team rose through the ranks of the Romanian league system before eventually gaining promotion to the Divizia A at the end of the 1986–87 season.[18][19] However, competition there proved to be too strong and relegation back to Divizia B was the logical consequence, a league in which the team played for the rest of its existence.[20] Before the 1993–94 season, the name was changed to Bucovina Suceava, after the name of the region Bukovina.[21]

In the summer of 1997, Foresta Fălticeni was moved from Fălticeni to Suceava and renamed as Foresta Suceava, thus ending the CSM era.[22]

Foresta Fălticeni, a side story (1997–2003)

[edit]
Main article: Foresta Fălticeni

Foresta Fălticeni was founded in 1954 in Fălticeni, under the name of Avântul Fălticeni. Foresta was the first team representing Divizia C that played in a Romanian Cup final which was lost with 0–6 against Steaua București at the end of the 1966–67 season. In 1997, the club was moved to Suceava after it won the promotion to the Divizia A for the first time in history. The main reason for the move was the inadequate state of Foresta's stadium in Fălticeni, which was both small and had a cracked stand. Another reason for the move was, that the main team in the city, CSM Suceava had failed to achieve any notable performances during the previous decade.

Revival of Cetatea (2004–2010)

[edit]

Cetatea Suceava was re-founded in the summer of 2004 (when it absorbed Șoimii Suceava), as the phoenix club of Cetatea Sucevei, in order to continue the city's football tradition after Foresta adisestablishment. The club's first season was synonymous to its first great performance, when it finished first in Divizia C, and was promoted to Divizia B. At the end of the 2005–06 season of Divizia B, Cetatea finished fifth, only to relegate the next season, when it finished 15th, just two points behind FCM Câmpina, the last team to save itself. The following season, 2007–08 of the Liga III, Cetatea finished first with 76 points out of 34 games and was promoted back. The next season of the Liga II, 2008–09, was one of big struggle, Cetatea avoiding relegation only because the last four teams that were relegated withdrew from the championship.

Cetatea Suceava was excluded from the championship during the winter break of the 2009–10 season, because of approximately 1 million € debt (unpaid wages to the players and coaches and unpaid taxes to the state and other private partners). The club lost all its remaining matches, 3–0.[23][24] In July 2010, the club re-entered in the competitions organised by the FRF, and competed in the 2010/2011 season of the Romanian Cup.[25] The club also wanted to enter in the 2010/2011 season of the Liga III and to be able to be promoted to Liga II.[26] On 2 August 2010, the club was registered at the FRF and competed in the 2010/2011 season of the Liga III, but was subsequently dissolved.[27] It withdrew from the championship just a few days before it started.

Rapid CFR and the nostalgia of Foresta (2010–2024)

[edit]
Main article: ACS Foresta Suceava

After the dissolution of Cetatea Suceava in 2010, local football gradually reorganized around Rapid CFR Suceava, which became the main club representing the city in national competitions, achieving promotion to the second division at the end of the 2011–12 season. In the summer of 2016, the club changed its name from Rapid CFR Suceava to Foresta Suceava, a name that binds the most important results of the football from Suceava, obtain by Foresta Fălticeni, but with no direct connection between the two clubs.[28] The new Foresta played at the level of Liga II and Liga III until 2024, when it was dissolved due to financial and political problems.[29]

No more Foresta, Cetatea is back (2024–present)

[edit]

After the dissolution of the second Foresta Suceava, a group of former players, together with the local authorities and several local business figures, re-established Cetatea Suceava, but now with the support of the local authorities, the new Cetatea was integrated into the activity of CSM (Municipal Sports Club), a multi-sports club that also owned the former football team of CSM Suceava, effectively merging the two historical teams into CSM Cetatea Suceava.[30][31] The team uses the traditional white and blue colors and plays its home matches at the historical stadium of the city, Areni Stadium.[32]

Cetatea won promotion to Liga III at the first attempt under Ionuț Plămadă, winning the 2024–25 season of Liga IV – Suceava County and the promotion play-off against AS Bârsănești, the Bacău County winner (6–0 at home and 2–1 away). The squad comprised, among others, Cuciureanu, Grosu, Sumanariu, Vițu, David, Nițu, Cerlincă, Chelari, M. Ilie, Ciobanu, Filip, Codău, Buceac, Rotundu, Netbai and Smoco.[33][34][1]

After promotion, Dorin Goian was appointed head coach for the 2025–26 campaign,[35][36] and the squad was significantly strengthened ahead of the new season through several notable signings, including Tucaliuc, Gorovei, Balgiu, Perju, and Zaharia.[37] Goian resigned after a heavy 0–3 defeat at Bacău in the fifteenth round and was replaced by Petre Grigoraș,[38] who further reinforced the team during the winter break with the arrivals of Ciobanu, Dănăilă, Frunză, Vlad, G. Răducan, and Ferhaoui,[39] before leading the side to a 2nd-place finish in Series I of the regular season, behind local rivals Șoimii Gura Humorului, overtaking them after a close race in the play-off round and winning the series to secure promotion to Liga II. The squad also included Bai, Chelari, Petraru, Sumanariu, M. Ilie, Drăghiceanu, Cerlincă, and Codreanu.[2]

Ground

Cetatea Suceava plays its home matches on the Areni Stadium. The stadium has a total capacity of 12,500 seats (but is restricted to 7,000 seats due to safety measures) and was opened in 1963 under the name of Municipal Stadium. Additionally, the stadium was also renovated between the periods 1976–1977, 1980–1982 and 2002 respectively. It is currently ranked 31st in the all time ranking table of stadiums from Romania.[40]
