After the conclusion of the regular season, teams will be divided according to their place to enter either the championship play-offs or the relegation play-outs.[3]

The teams ranked 15th and 16th at the end of the play-out tournament will be directly relegated, while the 13th and 14th places played a promotion/relegation play-off against 3rd and 4th places from Liga II.[3]

Teams

The league consisted of 16 teams: 12 from the 2021–22 Liga I, two teams from the 2021–22 Liga II, and the winners of the 2021–22 promotion/relegation play-off.

Teams promoted to the Superliga

The first club to be promoted was Petrolul Ploiești, following their 2–0 win against Concordia Chiajna on 9 May 2022. Petrolul Ploiești returned to the Superliga after six years of absence.[4]

The second club to be promoted was Hermannstadt, following their 0–0 draw against Steaua București on 15 May 2022. Hermannstadt returned to Liga I after only one year of absence.[5]

The third club to be promoted was Universitatea Cluj, following their 1–1 draw against Dinamo București on 29 May 2022, in the promotion/relegation play-offs. Universitatea Cluj returned to Liga I after seven years of absence.[6]

Teams relegated to the Liga II

The first club to be relegated was Gaz Metan Mediaș, which were relegated on 2 April 2022 following a 0–4 defeat against UTA Arad, ending their six-year stay in the top flight.[7] Gaz Metan had severe financial problems and was repeatedly penalized, finally ending the season only with financial support from the Romanian Football Federation and the Romanian Professional Football League.[8]

The second club to be relegated was Academica Clinceni, which were relegated on 8 April 2022 following their 0–3 defeat against Chindia Târgoviște, ending their three-year stay in the top flight. Academica had also severe financial problems and was repeatedly penalized, also being denied a license for the new season since March 2022.[9]

The third club to be relegated was Dinamo București, which were relegated on 29 May 2022 following their 1–1 draw against Universitatea Cluj in the promotion/relegation play-offs, thus ending their 74-year stay in the top flight. Dinamo is the second most titled club in Romania and relegated for the first time in their history.[10]
