FC “Arjesh” terminated the contract with Yasmin Latovlevich

The club from Pitesti announced the divorce from the former player in a statement.

“The FC Arjesh club and football player Yasmin Latovlevich have reached an agreement on the peaceful termination of contractual relations. The 36-year-old defender, originally from Novaya Moldova, wore our team’s t-shirt in 40 games and scored 1 goal,” FC Argesh reports on the official website.

Penalty and substitution at 30 minutes, in the last game

At the last stage of the Super League, FC Arges suffered a 0-5 defeat at home to Sepsi Sfantu Gheorghe without the right to appeal. In the 27th minute, Latovlevich missed a pass and, trying to deflect the ball, fouled the visitors’ midfielder Nikolae Pauni in the penalty area. In the 30th minute, Pitesti’s new coach Marius Kroitoru opened the scoring, replacing Yasmin Latovlevich with Geani Krets.

After the game, the defender was criticized by the club’s management, so a breakup seemed inevitable.

Yasmin Latovlevic has 5 Romanian championship titles with FCSB and CFR Cluj, as well as 12 national team selections.
