History

edit

Sport Club Popești-Leordeni was founded in 2011 under the name of CS Popești-Leordeni, in order to continue the football tradition in town after the dissolution of more known Inter Gaz București and of Viscofil Popești-Leordeni. After a first year in which the team succeeded to promote from Liga V to Liga IV, followed two conecutve seasons in the fourth tier, but the white and reds missed the Liga III promotion play-off. Eventually, the club found another solution and in 2013 merged with newly promoted club Gloria Cornești, which was absorbed by CS, the new entity being named Gloria Popești-Leordeni.[1]

In 2016 Gloria Popești-Leordeni was renamed as SC Popești-Leordeni.[2]
