Transfers Synthesis
Slatina’s recorded player movement through 28 July 2026 presents a mixed picture rather than a single transfer route. Arrivals include free agents such as Alexandru Ureche, A. Borduşanu, A. Stan and R. Matiș, alongside loan additions and a return from loan involving L. Ilie. The departure sample is similarly varied: Óscar Siafá left as a free agent, several temporary arrangements ended with players returning to parent clubs, and T. Oltean was listed in a transfer to ASA Targu Mures. Dates cluster in July 2025, January and February 2026, and June and July 2026. Some names appear in more than one movement entry, reflecting separate spells or transactions, so the listed arrivals and departures should not be treated as a net balance or complete totals. No fees are recorded in these entries, leaving no basis for a broader financial conclusion.
Leagues Slatina has participated in
Slatina has recorded participation in Liga II from 2020 through 2025, making the second tier the main league competition in the available history. Cupa României participation is recorded from 2018 through 2025, while club friendlies are listed from 2021 through 2025. The competition entries remain active in the latest available 2025 records, but no 2026 season is recorded here. Liga II and Cupa României provide the club’s formal domestic framework, with friendlies representing its non-league competition programme overall.
More about Slatina
Slatina is the football identity associated with Clubul Sportiv Municipal Slatina, commonly known as CSM Slatina, in southern Romania. The club is based in Slatina, the capital of Olt County, a city on the Olt River in the historical region of Oltenia. This setting gives the team a clear municipal and regional character, linking competitive football with the sporting life of its home city.
The club’s public backing is central to that identity. CSM Slatina operates within a municipal sports structure supported by the Municipality of Slatina, alongside branches such as handball, boxing and athletics. Football therefore sits within a broader civic programme rather than an isolated private sporting project. The red-and-white palette associated with the municipal club, together with civic elements in the crest, reinforces that connection with local pride and public support.
Stadionul 1 Mai, or May 1 Stadium, is the team’s established football setting. Located on Strada Gheorghe Poboran, the multi-use venue carries historic local importance and provides the home context for Slatina’s supporters and matchday culture. The stadium name and the club’s visual identity both connect the present team with the city’s longer football tradition.
Slatina’s recorded competitive footprint is rooted in the Romanian national pyramid. Liga II is the principal league listed in the available records, with participation recorded from 2020 through 2025. The club also appears in Cupa României from 2018 through 2025, while club friendlies are recorded from 2021 through 2025. The team has no recorded regular presence in UEFA club competitions in the available profile.
The football programme is associated with a predominantly Romanian playing base, regional development and a measured use of players from abroad. That balance fits the club’s municipal role and second-tier environment, where continuity, local connection and practical squad building are important parts of its character. As of August 2026, Slatina’s profile combines public stewardship, red-and-white civic symbolism and an established place in Romanian domestic football.
