Remus Guţea, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 7.86
A mark of 7.86 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 19-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Voluntari say no — this time
The offer from CS Afumați for Eduard Chioveanu was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Tempers go at Voluntari
Daniel Dumbravanu was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Voluntari get the job done against CSM Reșița
A 2‑1 win over CSM Reșița, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Voluntari promote Ovidiu Moldovan from within
The academy exists for exactly this morning. Ovidiu Moldovan has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Bogdan Stanciu steps up from the Voluntari academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Bogdan Stanciu has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

One of our own: Stefan Maxim joins the Voluntari first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Stefan Maxim is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
