Despite the fact that CFR Cluj is in the second position of the Super League, five points behind the leader FCSB, it is not going through the best period in terms of results.

CFR Cluj has officially announced that it supports coach Andrea Mandorlini

Defeat at the last stage of the Super League against “University of Craiova” continued the unsuccessful streak of “CFR Cluj”, which did not play five games in a row.

In the last eight matches in the championship and the cup, “Transylvania” got three points only in the confrontation with “Farul Constanta” on October 30.

Amid increasingly intense rumors that Italian Andrea Mandorlini will be sacked, CFR chiefs issued a statement reiterating their support for the coach and players.

“After more and more information appears in the sports media aimed at creating an imbalance in our family, the CFR 1907 Cluj club would like to provide some clarifications:

We are completely disappointed by these dishonest attempts against our club, the sole purpose of which is to destabilize the team.

We have a busy schedule ahead, four important matches before the competition break, and we want all our energy to be directed exclusively in this direction, and not on periodic debunking of articles that appear in the public space.

Even if the recent results were really not what we wanted, both the players and our coach Andrea Mandorlini enjoy the support of the club management. The performance of our team, which was also appreciated by the vast majority of experts in the industry, gives us confidence for the remaining matches of this season.

We have repeatedly demonstrated that failures give us the strength to come back and win, they are an inevitable part of the realities of the sports sphere.” – reported CFR Clujon the official website.

The streak of important matches continues for Cluj, who will meet Rapidul on Wednesday night in a decisive match for the quarter-finals of the Romanian Cup and FCSB in the Super League on Sunday.
