“I've known him for over 20 years, I really like him as a person”

MM claims that he knows the man with the money from Gruia very well. He thinks that his Balaj it was not easy for her to work with him, considering that he is an unpredictable person.

Nelu Varga, praised by Mihai Stoica for what he achieved at CFR Cluj: “When everyone was talking about Paszkany and Mureșan, that he is unrepeatable…”

The FCSB official also spoke about the transfer strategy of the Romanian vice-champion. CFR Cluj preferred to legitimize players free of contract and offer them huge salaries.

Instead, the red-blues paid significant transfer fees, but did not offer such high wages.

“I really like him as a person (no – Nelu Varga)but he's an unpredictable guy and I think he's not easy to work with. What he did in football…he invented this new team.

I have known him for over 20 years. When everyone was talking about Paszkany and Muresan, that it was unrepeatable… In Europe they were much better before, but it was a conjuncture. High salaries can lead to the decline of a club.

They had a different policy. Gigi bought players with exorbitant amounts for our championship, but did not give huge salaries, as I understand what happened there. And then we had normal salaries, now they are quite high, but after the contracts end, I think we stabilize.

That's why what happened at CFR happened. Free players were coming, but on very high salaries, signing money and so on. The Turks had this policy. Only now have they started to buy players, to pay large sums.

Free players were coming, Kuyt from Liverpool, Sneijder and Drogba to Galatasaray, but that was not a solution either, because they had huge debts”, said Mihai Stoica, at Prima Sport.
