Paul Papp and Takayuki Seto will play for Petrolul Ploiesti next season as well

Petrolul Ploiesti missed the Super League playoffs and coach Florin Pirvu left the team.

With interim Florin Stinge on the bench, Prahoven won 1-0 against Kraiów 1948 in the first leg of the play-offs.

But the leaders are gearing up for next season and announced on Tuesday that two key players have extended their contracts until 2025.

Veterans Paul Papp and Takayuki Seto were out of contract this summer, and the club offered to extend them for another year.
