Victor Piţurcă (69 years old) spoke again about the situation in which Steaua is. The winner of the European Champions Cup recalled that he was refused when he came with possible investors.
The Steaua club reactivated the football section in 2017, and the team did not obtain the right to promote in Superliga even until today due to the form of organization. For 4 years the team has been ranked in the first places in the second step, but cannot play in the Superliga.
Victor Pițurcă no longer supports the situation in which his soul team is located and said that the team cannot be associated with a private due to the conditions imposed by the Ministry of Defense, who would like to have control. He remembered that he wanted a discussion between Nicolae Ciuca, the then commander, and a private company in the United States, but was refused.
Victor Pițurcă: “The conditions put by the minister do not allow to take over the star”
“I sent the commander that I found possible investors. I think two years ago, during Mr. Ciuca. I sent to the commander that I found a large company in the United States, with whom, with which I discussed this, I was not going to discuss.
People were very willing to discuss, and I put high prices on the table, not 5-10-20 million. That I know what the star means. The commander said from the first that no, we know what happened to Mr. Becali.
And now I understood that something was tried by some people who wanted to invest, but the conditions put by the minister do not allow to take over the star. That is, the man to come with the money and they also lead the club.
It is not that someone is not found, but that the business is not done. This is their desire. It happened a year, two, three … But even so long? ”said Victor Pițurcă, at the Football Club show, from Digi Sport.
