FCSB is again put up for “sale” by its owner Gigi Bekali, who has announced that he is “retiring” from football. The businessman also named the amount for which he would agree to sell the team of the vice-champion of Romania.

Gigi Becali is listing FCSB for sale for $15 million

Speaking at the ProArena, Becali said he was thinking more and more about retiring from football, and he also announced the amount he would be willing to sell the team, who are runners-up in Romania, for.

“I don’t buy anymore… I knock on the way out. What does it mean? I stop spending money and try to reduce it. Giving 150,000 euros to the academy is wrong. I give 50,000 euros.

The same with the first team. I can see that they can throw out that they are running out of contracts. I stopped giving them long contracts because I’m not a jerk anymore. I look at what’s running out, what I can sell. I have to slowly, slowly cut costs. You can’t tell where the world is going. Pandemic, war… You can’t tell.

I just want the money I gave him. We gave away $9.3 million when we transformed the team, when we “stole” the team, as they say.

I stole the team, but I gave away $9.3 million, even though it was petty cash. And I want another 6 million, my money. So I want 15 million.

If I see Tavi grow, I will give her away without Tavi (without Octavian Popescu). I want to take money for him. What, I can’t find legal solutions?” Gigi Bekali told ProArena.

After a disastrous run in the Conference League (being one of the weakest teams in the competition), FCSB are hoping to make it to the Super League (formerly League 1) playoffs.

At the moment, the squad, which is being prepared by the acting Mihai Pintilius, is in 8th place with 23 points in 15 matches. Petrolul Ploiesti (the last-placed group leading into the playoffs) has 26 points, but also three games to play.
