CFR Cluj are going through the most difficult stage of the last three seasons, and Dan Petrescu is very close to the departure of the Romanian champion from the technical bench.
The last two weeks have been a nightmare for Dan Petrescu. Although the Europa League group stage started perfectly for CFR Cluj, who managed to win away from CSKA Sofia, scoring 2-0, now the coach of the Romanian champions has declared that his team has no chance of qualifying in spring Europe.
Grieved by injury problems and the coronavirus outbreak, among those unavailable are base players like Andrei Burcă, Paulo Vinicius or Mike Cestor, CFR Cluj surprisingly lost in League I, score 1-2, in their own field, with Gaz Metan Mediaş, and in the Europa League she was humiliated by AS Roma. The Italians had fun with Dan Petrescu’s team on Thursday and won without problems 5-0.
Big surprise in League I. Dan Petrescu leaves CFR Cluj and is replaced by a Serie A coach
Besides the problems he has with unavailable players, Dan Petrescu is not in the best of relationships with the club bosses either. The owner of the CFR, Nelu Varga, did not shy away from words and, this week, he reproached the coach of the Romanian champion with innumerable things. And it all started from the statements of Dan Petrescu, ensuring that he is very close to resigning from the team.
Also this week, fanatik.ro wrote that the 52-year-old Romanian manager is in advanced negotiations with Saudi Arabia’s Al Nassr, where club officials have prepared an annual salary of 2.5 million euros for Dan Petrescu.
Thus, information has already appeared on the possible replacement of the Romanian coach on the CFR technical bench. The Italian press writes that Leonardo Semplici has already been contacted by the Romanian champion’s officials for a possible collaboration.
The 53-year-old Italian has also coached teams like Pisa, Arezzo or Figline in his career, but his great performance was achieved at SPAL, a team he took over in December 2014, took it from Serie C and led one the first time. league. In the 2016/2017 season, Semplici managed to enter Serie A with SPAL, but, due to the disappointing results of last season, the manager was fired from the team bench in February this year, and has since been free of contract and interested in a possible collaboration with CFR Cluj, according to Italian journalists.
