FCSB sold Andrea Compagno to Tianjin Tiger

At the age of 27, Andrea Compagno was transferred to FCSB in the summer of 2022 for €1.5 million and in his first season he impressed, scoring no less than 21 goals.

With just 4 goals in 18 appearances this season in the Romanian Super League, Compagno was no longer making the team at FCSB and the boss decided to sell him abroad.

Despite the fact that the Super League leader had an offer of €450,000 from Konyaspor, the Italian forward decided to go to China, more precisely to Tianjin Tiger, who will pay €180,000 instead.

For a price of 2.3 million euros, Compagno will sign a two-year contract with the Chinese group and will receive an annual salary of 835,000 euros.

“Yu Hanwei (Tianjin Tiger head coach) was looking for a center forward in this transfer window but missed out on several players. Tianjin Tiger’s first choice was Aziz, who was third on the list of top scorers last season.

Unable to reach an agreement with the three cities of Wuhan, Tianjin Tiger was forced to withdraw, but found a backup plan. According to the correspondent Gu Ying, the Italian Compagno became the team’s new foreign striker. Everything is ready and the new foreign striker will be in Tianjin. He will spend the second part of the winter camp together with the team.” – wrote a Chinese from 163.com.
