Fans of the National Team, unhappy with the possible call of Mario Camora
In the address entitled “There are no foreigners in the national team”, the fans show their discontent after the coach Mirel Rădoi stated at a press conference that it is possible to summon Mario Camora (CFR Cluj), a Portuguese footballer who has officially acquired Romanian citizenship, to the next actions of the first national team.
“At the end of last month, Mario Camora acquired Romanian citizenship, as a result of compliance with the legislative conditions that govern this fact. As always, we remain in line with our principles, hoping to comply with the most basic moral standards in this case, thus disapproving of a possible selection of any foreign player in the Romanian national team, for as many objective reasons as possible “, is shown in the cited statement.
Fans claim that the national team “it can only contain Romanian players, because that is its purpose “ cast “Any foreign implant completely distorts its purpose and makes it look like a club team”. Arguments such as the current form of the national team, the value of the foreign player in question, the possibility of his need in one match or another, should not be discussed because they would constitute “An attack on the integrity, identity and symbolism of the national team.”
In the opinion of the fans, the call for Mario Camora would mean “an artificial solution with long-term harmful implications” because in this way the possibilities of affirming young talents at the highest level would be suppressed. Thus, for our young players, it will not be enough to be the best Romanian footballers in their positions to be selected, as usual, but they will also face unfair competition, unnatural and with unlimited resources, of foreign origin “, is also specified in the statement.
The eventual call of the Portuguese-born footballer contradicts the rule imposed in recent years by the Romanian Football Federation by which League 1 teams are obliged to start matches with two Romanian players under the age of 21, fans also say .
Fans threaten to challenge FRF leadership and Mirel Rădoi if Mario Camora plays for the Romanian national team
The group “United under the tricolor” mentions that it will challenge the leadership of the FRF and the coaching staff of the first team in case of using Mario Camora in the Romanian national team.
Returning to the case of the player Mario Camora, we mention that we respect him as a person and as a footballer, as well as we consider it worthy of appreciation that he chose to stay in our country, apply for citizenship and probably finish his career here. , admitting from here that our approach refers to a general situation, not something personal.
However, the selection offers a completely different paradigm to that of a club team and it is normal that its purpose does not deviate in any way. In conclusion, we are confident that qualifiers will treat this issue with cerebrality and wisdom, will take into account as much as possible the goal arguments raised above, and will not set a dangerous precedent for selection.
Otherwise, we find ourselves in an unpleasant situation for us and all the factors involved, to be forced to challenge with immediate and permanent effect both this eventual approach and the leadership of the federation, as well as the coach of the national team ”., is also specified in the statement.
Mario Camora took Romanian citizenship
Mario Camora, the Portuguese-born footballer of the CFR Cluj team, took an oath of allegiance on September 2 and officially obtained Romanian citizenship, thus being eligible for the call for the first representative of Romania.
Camora, a left-back who won four Romanian titles with CFR Cluj, has played for Gruia since 2011. He previously played in his native country, in Samora Correia, Valdevez, Beira-Mar, Pampilhosa and Naval.
The coach of the Romanian soccer team, Mirel Rădoi, declared, on September 3, at a press conference, that it is possible to summon Mario Camora to the next actions of the first team.
“It is possible to see Mario Camora in the next matches, being part of the national team. As I was saying, before these matches (no, with Northern Ireland and Austria in the League of Nations) his legal situation was not very clear. And we didn’t want to risk it “says Rădoi.
