Ermal Krasnici almost moves to Italy for 5 million euros

CFR Cluj had a very busy summer after finishing the championship in 3rd place.

The multiple Romanian champions parted ways with Dan Petrescu and sold several important players.

Juri Mathias, Nana Boateng, Andrei Bourke, Simone Skuffe and Emmanuel Yeboa have already left CFR Cluj, while Daniel Birlighea was also close to a Serie B move to Parma.

Now the owner of the Gruja team has announced that he is very close to selling Ermal Krasniči to Italy for €5 million.

“The transfer of Krasnichy will take place today or tomorrow, it’s a matter of details. France remains on the track, but, most likely, the offer of the Italian club will be more specific. The amount is more than 5 million euros. We will take a Colombian in his place. 99% passed.” – said Ioan Varga, boss of CFR Cluj, iamsport.ro reports.

CFR Cluj brought in Krasnichy from Balkan, a team they faced in the UEFA Conference League groups, for just €200,000.

From the moment of his arrival in the CFR Cluj Krasnichy played 30 matches in the T-shirt of Transylvania, scored 5 goals and provided 3 decisive assists.
