Superliga: Mirel Rădoi, satisfied after the University of Craiova found out the program of the new season: “This was the only wish”

Mirel Rădoi, the coach of the University Craiova team, was satisfied with the result of the draw of the competitive calendar for season 2025-26 in Superliga.

The group from Bănie will play in the first stage on the ground, on the field of UTA Arad. Good news for the Oltenians, given that the lawn on “Ion Oblemenco” will not be ready for the start of the season.

Mirel Rădoi: “I think it is a balanced draw of the target”

“I would not say that it is a difficult program and none easy. I am glad that I have fallen in the first stage, so that the lawn that will be mounted on Ion Oblemenco has time to install and those who work for him have time to bring him to optimal conditions until the match in the second stage, when we play at home.

I think it is a balanced firing of the target, but I have no preferences, because it is a matter of time until we play with all the teams, so I didn't have any opponent preferences for the first stages. The only desire was to play in the first stage. From a physical point of view, the boys are unexpectedly in the cantonment, see total involvement, effort, strength, speed, I have no reproach.

Obviously, from a tactical point of view, we try from day to day, from training to training, to improve ourselves. It is a difficult time, which they also perceived and tried to assimilate, to accumulate, for what will follow. We have only 20 days available for training, so players understood that it is a sacrifice period, then weekly cycles will follow.

I am glad that we have no injuries, we are waiting for the first matches, to see what information the players have assimilated tactically. We wanted to come to this hotel, because I was here two years ago with Al Bataeh and there are very good training, restoration, accommodation and food, ”said Rădoi, quoted by Digisport.ro.

In the second stage, Craiova University will receive the visit to FC Argeș.
