Florin Prunea, former Romanian international and Dinamo player, reacted after the “dogs” managed to beat Metaloglobus 4-0, in a match of stage #20 of the Superliga.
The former goalkeeper was impressed by Cristi Mihai, the midfielder who scored the 2-0 goal and assisted decisively in the 3-0. Florin Prunea asked coach Zeljko Kopic to give more confidence to the 21-year-old footballer.
Florin Prunea asks Zeljko Kopic to give minutes to Cristi Mihai: “This boy deserves more”
“This boy deserves more. It seemed that way to me from the beginning of the championship. He got that red card then, but otherwise when he was called upon I thought he did his duty.
Kopic has a duty to give him more minutes. Eddy Gnahore and Milanov have made a perfect match and are starting to bond. This kid needs a little push. I think he will soon be the holder of the position“, Florin Prunea transmitted to the Fotbal Club show from Digi Sport.
Dinamo's policy of bringing in young players is a correct one. Here I also include Cătălin Cîrjan and Musi. These young guys: Bărbulescu who is on the bench, Caragea. They are players whom Dinamo trusts. Plus I know they wanted to take a Romanian goalkeeper, but the prices on the domestic market were high. I know exactly that. Epassy is a good goalkeeper

Cristi Mihai arrived in the summer of 2025 at Dinamo. The “Dogs” paid UTA Arad 350,000 euros to bring the player who can also fulfill the U21 rule. Cristi Mihai has played 10 matches for Dinamo this season. He scored the first goal today, in the match with Metaloglobus. The footballer from Arad also has a decisive pass. The U21 international is quoted by specialist websites at 900,000 euros.
VIDEO. Cristi Mihai scored the first goal for Dinamo! Superb success
It's a very nice feeling. I was happy that I scored and, since I came to Dinamo, I wanted to impose myself. With this goal I hope to become a key player at Dinamo
I won't celebrate too much, because we have a match in Arad and we have to win to have happy holidays. It's a special match, but in my mind I'm treating it like any other. The important thing is that the team wins
