Dan Petrescu remains the coach of CFR Cluj – Goodbye, but I’m staying with you

“I just spoke on the phone with Dan Petrescu, he only has a cold, he does not have Covid… He told me that he will be in training tomorrow (not Thursday).

We are no longer discussing departure, the case is closed. Stay tuned to CFR! We need a result, his and team work, and not to arrange a circus on TV” – Nelutu Varga for Fanatik.ro.

The reigning champions of Romania, CFR Cluj, are in 4th place in the Super League (former League 1) with 18 accumulated points. The group from Gruia are six points behind leaders Farul Constanta (however, Dan Petrescu’s squad has played two games less than Gheorghe Hagi’s team).

However, in the Conference League, things are not going too well in the CFR, with Dan Petrescu’s team coming last with only one point (1-1 with Ballkani and 0-1 with Sivasspor).
