Yo, sit down and let me tell you what's going down in our Super League – it's pure madness! I don't know if it's a nursery for foreign clubs or where the players are going, but one thing's for sure: things are moving. Check out what I found out from the boys at Gazeta and Digi, no joke.
Leard Sadriu, the Kosovar defender from FC Argeș, is valued at one million euros – yeah, you heard that right, one million! And he's wanted by the Bulgarian champions, Levski Sofia. The Pitești guys aren't desperate to sell him; they're waiting for concrete offers. So far, some Germans from Kiel, some Russians from Baltika Kaliningrad, and some Chinese from Wuhan Three Towns have been eyeing him, but only Levski is still on his tail. Man, I swear, if he leaves, he'll make a pretty penny. Go figure, from Argeș, Ceaușescu's land, straight to Bulgaria to play in their league. Good for him!
And Ciprian Biceanu, the midfielder with over 150 matches in the Super League, became a free agent after parting ways with ASA Târgu Mureș. Now he's wanted by Liga 2 teams: SCM Râmnicu Vâlcea, FC Bihor, and Unirea Slobozia, which got relegated. He confirmed the talks but won't give details – apparently, the distance from Pitești and Ploiești, where he lives with his family, made him turn down offers from FC Voluntari and UTA. Man, I say he's a level-headed guy, not jumping at any offer. But check this out: a 32-year-old player is still in demand! That means he's got value.
Now, check out the transfer UTA Arad pulled off: they brought in Ismet Sinani, a 27-year-old striker raised by AC Milan! Yeah, yeah, from AC Milan! He was born in Italy, with Kosovar-Albanian roots, and has only played in Italian football, at Juve Stabia, Virtus Verona, Legnago, Union Clodiense, and AC Bra. The contract is for one season, with an option to extend. Man, let's be serious, if a player raised by AC Milan comes, it means UTA is doing its job! And they have more news: they will host the home matches of Corvinul Hunedoara, newly promoted to the Super League, until the stadium in Petroșani is finished. Financier Alexandru Meszar confirmed it. That's how you do business, bro!
But wait, it's not over! Left-back Bogdan Marian, from Petrolul Ploiești, is leaving for Belgium, to RFC Liege, in the second division. He's 21 years old and is already there for medical tests, according to Sport.ro. He was raised by Watford! Dender (Belgium) and Plymouth Argyle (England) were also interested. Man, what talented youngsters we have!
And one more: goalkeeper Mihai Popa (25) is leaving CFR Cluj after just half a year and signing with Motor Lublin from Poland, according to journalist Tomasz Wlodarczyk. Popa, also wanted by Wisla Krakow and Rapid, replaced Croatian Ivan Brkic, who left for Legia Warsaw. Man, look at our players heading to Poland, where football pays serious money!
So, bro, our Super League is a real football factory. We raise them, they leave, and we're left hoping they'll bring us something someday. Go figure, Romania is a country of footballers! Alright, I'm off to explain to Brian how I lost a bet on Sadriu – he said he wouldn't leave, but when he heard about the million euros, he was speechless!
