Convened to the national of Romania, from the sixth league, of amateurs. Special situation for tricolor defender
The national youth national team begins in September 2027, with the matches in the preliminaries against the representatives of Kosovo and San Marino. The new coach Costin Curelea, who took Daniel Pancu's place, announced the list of strangers for the two parties, a list of Tony Strata, a player in a delicate situation.

The 20-year-old right-handed defender, born in Marseille from Father Corsican and Romanian mother, arrived in the 6th League of France. His band, Ajaccio, was relegated to the middle of this week outside of professional football, as a sanction for the club's financial problems. Immediately after this unpleasant news, Tony Strata received the convening at the U21 national of Romanian.
However, the defender will not remain in amateur football. Ajaccio will terminate the contracts of all the players, and Tony Strata is going to sign with another, professional band. The most likely destination of the tricolor will also be a Corsican team, Bastia, which evolves in the second step in France.
With him in a team, Romania U21 meets in the Euro 2027 preliminaries, on Kosovo, on September 5, and on San Marino, on September 9th.
List of the 10 strangers convened by Costin Curelea
Portar: Vlad Rafailă (Real Betis / Spain)
Defenders: Tony Strata (AC Ajaccio / France), Matteo Duțu (AC Milan / Italy), Emanuel Marincău (FSV Mainz / Germany), Antonio David (International Milan / Italy)
Midfielders: Luca Szimionaș (Hellas Verona / Italy), Robert Jălade (Sevilla / Spain)
Attackers: Rareș Burnete (Juve Stabia / Italy), Ioan Vermeșan (Hellas Verona / Italy), Jason Kodor (US Lecce / Italy)
The lot will be completed later with the players in the internal championship.
