CFR Cluj lost a match with Sivasspor from the Conference League (0:1), and some fans of the Romanian champion asked Dan Petrescu to resign. There was more and more talk about the departure of the coach from the Gruia group, and “Barsuk” shed light on this topic during a press conference.

The technician says he will leave when he no longer feels the support of boss Nelutu Varga, and that could happen next week, after the Super League match in Pitesti against FC Argesh.

Dan Petrescu: Are people at CFR Cluj tired of winning championships?

In a press conference ahead of the match against FC Arges (to be held on Monday in Trivala), Dan Petrescu said that he does not like the chair and that if he is no longer needed, he will leave the Romanian champions.

“I don’t understand where this pressure comes from. In my first year here, I won the championship and left. I came back, won the championship again, came last, maybe it’s not all my credit, I took the team to the Europa League groups, we went out in the spring.

The following year we won the championship again and went all the way to the Europa League groups, even then the world was not happy.

After six months, there were problems again, I left, and they brought me back, and I was called up, and I won the championship, and I got into the groups… Guys, if the world is tired of winning championships and going to the groups of European Cups, no problem, I’m leaving.

I can’t do more than take the championship and lead the team to the European groups. Maybe another one will come and take the Champions League. Take the championship and win the Champions League or get through to the groups.” – Dan Petrescu.

Dan Petrescu says the results speak for him

“When I came back to the team, I was asked to cut the budget, I got rid of players with high salaries who did not play very well and did nothing for the club, I took players without a contract, on half the salary, even less.

I cut the budget, won the championship, got into the groups… And if the referee comes in the groups and doesn’t give me a goal and three penalties, what can I do? am i guilty This is not fair.

Everyone can shout what they want, do what they want, but for me…the results speak for me. I don’t understand this pressure, where it comes from. If I lose 5-6 matches in a row, it’s normal” – Dan Petrescu.

“We didn’t spend the millions that other teams spent and that are behind us. This is reality. If we want something else, no problem.

Why should I stand here on people’s heads if they don’t want me? If they don’t want European Cups and championships anymore, well done, father! Maybe another one will come and win the championship and move to LC.” – Dan Petrescu.

Meeting with boss Nelutsa Varga: “There are no friends in football”

Dan Petrescu is ready to leave the team after the match with FC Argesh, if the management of the group from Gruia wants it.

“If CFR Cluj no longer wants to win the championship and groups, I will leave, no problem. After the match with Pitesti, we shook hands and left. It’s just.

I don’t care about money from the CFR, I don’t care about a place in the CFR. I have done everything here and will continue to do so if I am allowed. If they don’t let me in and people in the club don’t understand, then it’s in vain. sorry

I want to meet the boss on Tuesday. There is no friendship in football. I am alone. You have to do your job. There is no friendship in football. Let him say whether he still wants me or not. If he doesn’t trust me, what am I supposed to do here?

Players must play football. I gave up a lot of money for CFR Cluj. But in football, everyone forgets. Kyprian Deak is forgotten because he played for I don’t know how many years and gave his life. Now that he scored the penalty, he is the criminal of Cluj.

Instead of having a statue here at the Cyprian Deak Stadium, are we cursing him? If it weren’t for him, we would have won five championships in a row?”, he concluded Dan Petrescu.
