Fotbal Club FCSB, formerly named FC Steaua București, is a Romanian professional football club based in Bucharest. The club competes in the Liga I, the top tier of Romanian football.
The original Steaua București football team was founded in 1947 and belonged to the Ministry of National Defence, through the namesake CSA Steaua București sports club. In 1998, the football department and its facilities were separated from the latter and taken over by a group of shareholders in a post-communism privatisation scheme, leading to one of the shareholders, George "Gigi" Becali acquiring full ownership five years later. However, CSA Steaua București has been in conflict with the football club since 2011, claiming that it was a new and separate entity; this resulted in multiple court cases and the forced change of the name from FC Steaua București to FC FCSB in early 2017.
FCSB is the most decorated football clubs in Romania. Including disputed honours from pre-2003, FCSB has won the Liga I 27 times, Cupa României 24 times, Cupa Ligii two times, and Supercupa României six times—all competition records. FCSB also have successful achievement in international competition, most notably having won the European Cup (currently known as UEFA Champions League) in the 1985–86 season, after beating Barcelona in the final. They also won the European Super Cup in the same year.
The club plays its home games at the 55,634-seater Arena Națională.
FCSB is also considered the most popular club in Romania, with supports not only coming from Bucharest, but also several cities in the South and Eastern part of Romania. The club has a long-standing grudge against neighbouring Dinamo București, with matches between the two being commonly referred to as the "Eternal derby" or the "Romanian derby". Another notable rivalry is the one against Rapid București, while several milder ones are disputed against teams outside the capital, including a recent one against CFR Cluj, as well as Steaua București due to their dispute.
