Description

Politehnica Ştiinţa Timişoara is a Romanian football club which was established in 1921 and is currently playing in Romania's top league, Liga I. However, there is an issue regarding the club's rights to its own history, as former Poli owner Claudio Zambon has been claiming he is the rightful holder of the club records. Currently, FCU Poli have won the appeal at the highest Sports Court in Romania, as well as a trial in a Court of Law and they are awaiting confirmation from the Court of Arbitration for Sport, which decided in December that Zambon's team should be compensated for the use of name and colours of Politehnica. Despite all this controversy, FCU Politehnica Timişoara remains one of the most popular football clubs in the country (although never having won the Romanian championship), both in terms of their average number of attendances at home matches, and in the popularity of the club's official website.

The club also has a 2nd team, Politehnica Ştiinţa Timişoara II, which currently plays in the Romanian Liga II. It aims to train and promote talented youth for the first team.
