Stefan Bodișteanu's father: “Romania's methods are very strange”
Ruslan Bodișteanu, the father of the midfielder from FC Botosani, said, when his son became eligible for the national of Moldova, that he was surprised that he was bypassed by the first two representatives of Romania:
“I am a parent who does not involve me in the child's sports activity. I am a fighting coach and I have led national lots. It is very strange that Stefan has played at all the junior lots of Romania, from 15 to the U20, and from 20 up it has not been summoned. The selection methods in Romania are very strange,
I did not understand how from 14 years to 20 years it was convened in each national, and at the U21 it was not convened at least once. The boys talk to each other, they know their level. His friends called him and they asked him, “Ștefan, are you not convened?”. It seems strange. These strange things caused us to choose the national of Moldova, a more stable choice
I'm not saying that Stefan is the best, but I think it was worth convening at least once, twice at U21, see what he can. For me there are very strange things. This is my opinion, “said Ruslan Bodișteanu in March, according to Moldofootball.com.
He is much more talented and more professional than me and more professional. Surely it will overcome me, has all the premises
