The performances of Romanian athletes inspire urban art in Bucharest and in the country. After the mural dedicated to David Popovici, new murals now bring to the fore Nicolae Stanciu and Radu Drăgușin, Romania's heroes from Euro 2024, but also the legend of world gymnastics, Nadia Comăneci, honored in Onești.

Outstanding performances in Romanian sports are transformed into murals on the blocks of Bucharest. David Popovici was the first athlete to “receive” such a gift.

Now, more than a year after the European Championship in Germany, where the national team finished the group in first place, Nicolae Stanciu and Radu Drăgușin become the characters of a new mural drawing.

The artists started work a few days ago and are painting with automatic fire, so that the artwork will be ready in two to three weeks. Romania's Euro heroes will come to life on the facade of a block of flats in Bucharest, on Mihai Bravu Street.

Stanciu is represented with the unique joy of the leader of the national team, in the fabulous victory, 3-0, with Ukraine, after “Nico” managed a real gem of a goal, which opened the scoring at the Allianz Arena in Munich.
