Banca Transilvania becomes the official partner of Romanian football through a partnership with the Romanian Football Federation to support the youth national teams. 


BT is the main partner of the U19, U18, U17, U16 and U15 teams, and also supports the U21 team, qualified for the European Championship (EURO 2021). The opening match takes place on Wednesday, 24 March, in Budapest.
 

“Banca Transilvania is getting involved in football, but in fact we’re not just getting involved in football; we’re investing in the future, in the U21 national teams. We are not “a bank”, but the bank of Romanian entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurs and the U21 players have a lot in common. They’ve all come through the youth system, they work hard and have the hunger for success, which is achieved by those who focus on hard work and invest in results. With entrepreneurs and with the youth teams alike, what matters is seeing Romania grow boldly. Let’s grow boldly, Romania!”- Ömer Tetik, Chief Executive Officer, Banca Transilvania. 

“It is a real source of pride to welcome a partner like Banca Transilvania to the Romanian football family, the banking market leader in Romania and the largest bank in South-Eastern Europe. A major national brand is joining the U21 national team ahead of the biggest challenge of their careers, the finals in Hungary and Slovenia. Moreover, BT will be the main sponsor for all youth national teams, choosing to invest in the future of Romanian football. The values that unite us are courage, respect, ethics and responsibility — values we share and want to instil together in these young national-team players. In addition, through this partnership, we are laying the groundwork for a new concept in Romanian football by developing a financial education course for young footballers” - Razvan Burleanu, President, Romanian Football Federation.

The message from BT and the Romanian Football Federation, live from today on TV and online, is Let’s grow boldly, Romania!

Banca Transilvania also supports other sports in Romania, such as basketball, tennis and motorsport.
