Konoplyanka, Yurychych and Belgradyan leave the CFR Cluj

CFR Cluj opened the scoring against FCSB and had a completely dominant half-time, but the end could see them drop all points.

The distance between the two teams remained at 5 points, two stages before the break in the championship, and officials from Gruia are already preparing the list of departures.

Boss Nelu Varga announced the first three players to leave CFR on Monday.

“As for relegations, I can say about three players with whom we will part.

One is Konoplyanka, a huge disappointment. Unfortunately, that was my bet, but I lost it. It doesn’t happen that before every official match, when the coach lets you go, the day before you let him know that you have a pain in your leg that is pinching, I don’t know what.

Probably, he is not into football anymore, but it is not important anymore, it is a closed topic. In winter, we will part with Konoplainka.

Another player who did not bring satisfaction is Juricic. So is the football player in whom I believed. Unfortunately, he could not adapt, he does not score. It wasn’t what we wanted and we will be parting ways with him this winter.

The third is Belgradean, with whom we will finish this winter” – said Nelu Vargafor Fanatik.

After 19 stages of the current Super League season, CFR Cluj is in second place in the Super League standings with 33 points, five less than the leader FCSB.
