We still hear that its future club will have to have a certain standard, both financial and competitive
The latest discussions with the Warsaw Legia seem more and more stubborn, probably soon we will read that he has completely given up negotiations. Warsaw officials do not deny the interest for Ianis, but I admit that it is difficult for them to rise to the level of his claims, both from the point of view of money and from a football point of view.
No matter how hard it is, the legia can be nothing but it, that is, a Polish club. Not British, not Italian, not Spanish. Just Polish!
Summer fantasies
Waiting for an offer, Ianis is still preparing with the Lighthouse, but it is clear that he will not play the Dobrogean team. His level is another, that is told! And the stories with FCSB or Craiova, in the context of this level, seem too hot summer fantasies.
The competition of the supergly is as we know it is, with good and bad, rather mediocre than valuable, and salaries, no matter how much the patrons in them, cannot exceed 50 thousand euros, with all the bonuses in the world. So, Romania also falls, it is too eastern and too little performance/bidding.
Ianis Hagi
Past, present and future
The financial aspect is important, especially that at this moment Ianis Hagi is free of contract, a position from which he can claim not only a consistent salary, but also a customized installation premium.
There is little thing to come without a transfer to a player with almost 50 selections (47 more precisely) in the Romanian national! The CV is paid, the past with Fiorentina, Genk, Rangers, the first representative, everything! But just as true is that the present is paid, which is not too great. Because this present gives the prospect of the future, one year, two, three, or as the future contract would extend.
Is the share not a level?
But when we talk about the competitive level, we must also consider that in the last two and a half years Ianis has played quite a bit. Of course, it was serious injury, then the restoration, a break longer than a year. Then the influential loan from Alaves, then the last season in Rangers, with 24 games (and 4 goals), which means about half of the “Protestants” matches.
Hagi Jr's share. (according to Transfermarkt), reached at one point at seven million euros, He went down vertiginously, now it's only one and a half million. Which does not denoter who knows what “level”, but one that is quite common in the lots of FCSB, CFR, Craiovei and even Rapid. In order to have a comparison in front, the “banks” Muhar and Fică from CFR are worth 1.5, respectively 1.4 million.
The example of the father
Ianis has only 27 (unfulfilled), that is, it is about halfway as a player, if we think it will stretch for at least 36 (how much his father played). It's a crossroads for him, One of those crossed by many footballers throughout their careers.
At about the same age, his father accepted to leave Real Madrid, where he had started to stay on the reserve bench, to Brescia, barely promoted in the first Italian echelon.
Then, in 1992, Hagi Senior agreed to sketch the competition level and, undoubtedly and wage, because it was hard to believe that Brescia was paying like Madrid. The decision was received as crazy, almost impossible to explain, but after the two -year purgatory in Brescia followed for almost a decade at the highest possible level. But it is not known whether the “madness” of the father is hereditary ….
