“From our point of view, the best version of the president remains an shareholder. In the case of Rapid, it is Victor Angelescu. In the case of Genoa, I have taken over the position of president.
It is normal, because the president is the one who creates the budgets, which create the economic possibilities we can afford.
After all, the business is, not a business, but the business is eventually structured by shareholders. And it is normally executed by dedicated and automatically competent directors ”, explained Dan Șucu.
There can be no better president than a shareholder. We have, on the sports side, exceptional competence, on the economic side we have the same competence and dedication.
The best president for the club can only be a shareholder. Only the shareholder has to assume he wants. From the moment Victor decided he wanted, then things are clear.
