Adrian Mutu (46 years old) is close to returning to the technical bench. The “brilliant” revealed that he is in talks with a team from abroad.
Although there were rumors that he could end up on the bench of U Cluj, the “Brilliant” seems to have other plans.
Adrian Mutu can train from winter
Left without a team since March, Adrian Mutu spoke about the fact that he is close to signing with a team abroad. He would end up on the team's bench in the winter.
“I am in a discussion with a team from abroad. We have been groping for some time. Let's see what happens in the winter, because then it would be the most correct timing to take over a team,” Adrian Mutu told Prosport.
“Brilliant” trained last time at Petrolul Ploiești. He resigned after the defeat with FC Botoșani, score 0-2, in the first stage of the SuperLiga play-out.
