Romania lost a friendly match in Cluj against Slovenia (1-2) on Thursday night, and several Romanian players were criticized for their performance.

One of them is Alexandru Cikaldeu, a footballer currently on loan from Galatasaray to Ittihad Calba.

The Romanian midfielder started the match at the Cluj Arena, but his performance did not go down well with the fans and especially some Romanian football legends who criticized him for his performance.

Viorel Moldovan and Florin Raduchu did not forgive Aleksandar Cikaldeu for a weak match against Slovenia

Alexandru Cikaldeu played 60 minutes in the loss against Slovenia and was rated 4 by Gazeta Sporturilor.

Viorel Moldovan and Florin Reducai were completely disappointed with the evolution of the former Craiova University player and claimed that the Romanian had regressed since leaving Turkey.

“You see him play where he plays. I really liked it, but it has a lot of regression. Thin, thin he suggested. It’s a shame when I see these players going to certain places… When you play in the Emirates…,” Viorel Moldovan told Orange Sport.

Former Milan player Reduchuya replaced Viorel Moldovan.

“It was as if he was demotivated, he just didn’t want to. It was a game where you had to prove yourself. It’s a very weak league where they play, in the Emirates. Gotta think about football, what are they doing now? I will summon Sikaldea in a few months.” – said Raduchoi.

Alexandru Cikaldeu’s market share is currently €7.5m according to Transfermarkt and since joining Ittihad Calba the Romanian has made 11 appearances, scoring a goal and providing a crucial assist.
