Csíkszereda Miercurea Ciuc

Asociația Futball Klub Csíkszereda Miercurea Ciuc (Hungarian: , Romanian: ), commonly known as Csíkszereda Miercurea Ciuc or simply Csíkszereda, is a Romanian professional football club based in Miercurea Ciuc, Harghita County, which competes in the Liga I.

The current name of the team is an amalgamation of both the Hungarian and Romanian names of the city, respectively, with Miercurea Ciuc having a majority of Szekler population. Csíkszereda was originally established in 1904 in Austria-Hungary, and was an amateur team without notable results at national level. Refounded in 1919, it participated in the Romanian leagues until 1940, and eventually reached the second tier of Hungary after Northern Transylvania was assigned to the latter country. After World War II, the region was returned to Romania and Csíkszereda took a downward slope until 1971, when it participated in the Romanian third division for the first time.

After the fall of communism in 1989, the team encountered financial issues and moved constantly between the third and fourth tiers. Csíkszereda even withdrew from the championship in 2000, but after a decade of amateurism and subsistence was again refounded and managed to promote to the second league at the end of the 2018–19 season.
