FC Unirea Urziceni
Fotbal Club Unirea Urziceni (commonly known as Unirea Urziceni, ) was a Romanian professional football club from Urziceni. Unirea became national champions in 2009, at the end of their third season in the top-flight.
The club was founded in 1954, and spent the majority of its history in the lower tiers of the Romanian league system. In 2007 they reached Liga I for the first time, and received national praise for their results at this level. At the end of their second season in the top division they earned qualification to Europe, and one year later they claimed the domestic title. In 2010, the team's owner withdrew financial support and Urziceni was forced to sell most of its players to pay debts, leading to relegation at the end of the 2010–11 season.
In the summer of 2011, owner Dumitru Bucşaru didn't file for a licence for the club to play in Liga II, and decided not to enroll the team in any championship. Unirea Urziceni was subsequently dissolved.
