Daniel Bîrligea (25 years old), the attacker of the Romanian champion, FCSB, spoke for the EAD (holder of TV rights for Superliga), about the balance between sensitivity and strength, but also about the importance of showing your emotions.
Asked about how he sees the relationship between sensitivity and strength, Bîrligea said: “I think 50/50. You have to balance them very well, because too much strength or too much sensitivity does not help you.”
The Red-Baby Restacle acknowledges that the sensitivity helped to become a better player
“Yes, possible, because it teaches you to be more present, to know when you have to give more, when to be relaxed and when to be strong in difficult times. Both are fundamental,” says Bîrligea.
Daniel Bîrligea had a message for young athletes too
“The fear of showing their feelings is only inner. The world sees when you are sensitive and you show your sensitivity and thinks they are sensitive, but why can't I show that?
I would tell them to open, feel good and not feel judged. The sensitivity is a beautiful thing, you do not have to regret that you are sensitive or different. You have to live as you are, not how the others want, “said FCSB striker.
The course of Daniel Bîrligea
Daniel Bîrligea signed FCSB a year ago, after the red-blue club paid 2 million euros to CFR Cluj.
In his career, the striker has conquered the title of champion of Romania twice: with CFR in season 2021/22 and then with FCSB in the 2024/25 edition.
The specialized site Transfermarkt was designated as “the player of season 2024/25”. Currently, Bîrligea is valued at 5 million euros of the same specialized site and has managed to score 21 goals, offering 5 decisive passes in the 44 matches played for champions.
For the national team, the striker has three selections and a scored goal. Unfortunately, the striker could not be present in the friendly with the selected from Canada due to a muscle break suffered at the Gruia match against the CFR, a match with a score of 2-2.
