Fotbal Club FCSB (Romanian pronunciation: [fet͡ʃeseˌbe]), formerly Fotbal Club Steaua

București (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈste̯awa bukuˈreʃtʲ]) and sometimes colloquially known simply
as Steaua,[note 1] is a Romanian professional football club based in Bucharest. Founded in 1947
as Asociația Sportivă a Armatei București, it has spent its entire history in the Liga I, the top tier of
the Romanian football league system.
The team was initially part of the CSA Steaua București sports club and belonged to the Romanian
Army. In 1998, the club and facilities were separated from the armed forces and sold to a group of
shareholders in a post-Ceaușescu privatization scheme, subsequently leading to one of the
shareholders acquiring full ownership five years later. However, the same Army sued the football
club in 2011; the club has since been in a legal conflict regarding the ownership of the Steaua brand
and honours, which resulted in multiple court cases and the change of the name to FCSB in early
2017.[9][10]
