Mureşul Zădăreni and Târgu Mureș ready for new Romanian league seasons

Mureşul Zădăreni, after a flawless spring campaign that earned promotion, will compete in Liga 4. Coach Vasile Topac highlighted the club’s limited budget, reliance on player enthusiasm and the hope that the Zădăreni town hall will increase funding from 2027. New signings include midfielder Michael Grigorean, striker Dacian Zubașcu and defender Darius Onaca, while the team awaits a permanent home ground pending renovation of the local stadium.

AFC ASA Târgu Mureș, seeking to recover from a 1‑2 opening‑round loss, faces newly promoted Cetatea Suceava in the second round of Liga 2 on 8 August. Coach Eusebiu Tudor stressed the need for three points and noted the opponent’s experienced additions. Players such as Serges Ekollo echoed the call for focus, aiming to improve on last week’s defeat and stay in contention for a playoff spot.
