Gică Popescu, the last details before Zicu's appointment at Lighthouse
It is one of the variants. We have a very short list. Three, not many. Ianis is in the pole-postion. We were very pleased for Ianis, we know how much soul he put in this project from Metaloglobus, the difficulties he had throughout the season.
It is an important thing for his CV, to have such a promotion with a team with Metaloglobus's low level and budget. It's an extraordinary thing, he has proven to be a coach who can train at a high level.
The goal would be the play-off and the promotion of talents. Only the next match is the goal. Everyone wants the championship and trophies, but there is no other goal than the next match. There is no other goal in football!
