Team changes

edit

Renamed teams

edit

While still technically having remained a separate club for the duration of the 2021-22 season, and after using the Politehnica brand for one season[1][2], ACS Fortuna Becicherecu Mic was finally dissafiliated and the cession of participation rights in all women's football competitions to the SSU Politehnica Timișoara club was approved on 5 August 2022, finalizing a deal long in the making.[3]

Excluded and spared teams

edit

In the summer of 2022, Heniu Prundu Bârgăului was supposed to be taken over by the CS Gloria 2018 Bistrița-Năsăud club, which had more financial support. The move fell short due to identity issues, the main reason being the Heniu brand would have been suppressed in favor of the Gloria one.[4] Heniu coach Călin Svoboda, along with a large part of the players opted to move to found the women's football section of Gloria 2018, while Heniu disbanded due to a combination of lack of players and financial support. As a consequence, the 11th place in the 2021-22 Liga I, Universitatea Galați was spared from relegation.
