Eugen Trică (49 years old), coach free of contract, was invited to the GSP Live Special show and talked about Kevin Ciubotaru (21), the left back from Hermannstadt, who is very close to a transfer to FCSB.
Hermannstadt and FCSB reached an agreement for the transfer of Kevin Ciubotaru in exchange for the sum of 450,000 euros. The player can evolve in red-blue starting from January if he gives his consent.
Eugen Trică spoke about the transfer of Kevin Ciubotaru to FCSB: “Very good”
Eugen Trică said that he knows Ciubotaru quite well and believes that bringing him would be a good transfer for the Romanian champion. He thinks it's time for Risto Radunovic, the holder of the last years, to be brought a replacement.
“I know Kevin Ciubotaru since he played with Spain in Sibiu, a very good footballer. Now, how long will Radunovic play at Steaua (FCSB no)? It is already 4-5 years old, it needs a change there, a new breath.
Is it official yet? It's a very good transfer. You know what it's like when it's written to you. Know that Mr. Becali has learned football, unlike others who have no idea, but are interesting”, said Eugen Trică, on GSP Live Special.

Ciubotaru scored 18 matches in the current season, during which he provided two decisive assists. One of them was in the match won by the Sibiu 2-1 on the field of the leader Rapid. The defender has 4 matches in the national youth shirt.
He also played a match for the senior national team. He played 45 minutes in the friendly against Moldova, 2-1, in October.
We have already signed the transfer agreement with Hermannstadt. We pay 450,000 euros. Now, Hermannstadt can no longer sign with another club. And it wouldn't be fair play for another club to come and make an offer either.
I spoke with the player. He said that the transfer period will come and then we will sign the contract (from January 1). But there won't be any problems. Everything is solved. We will make more transfers. I found the players, but I'm not telling them
