Scottish journalists trash Louis Munteanu: “Celtic avoided a blow”
Among the teams interested in Munteanu was Celtic Glasgow, the Scottish champion. Journalists have seen the images of the top of Transylvania and are breathing a sigh of relief.
“Munteanu caused controversy this Christmas, after he was photographed in public wearing the shirt of the biggest rival of CFR Cluj, FCSB. Such a gesture that simply would not have been tolerated in Glasgow.
This latest controversy surrounding the Romanian striker is further evidence that Celtic have avoided a blow as Munteanu looks extremely unprofessional and raises questions about his character and respect for the Cluj fans who adore him.
Imagine if Munteanu was a Celtic player and tried to force a transfer wearing a Rangers shirt,” 67hailhail.com noted.
In the context of the viral images, Iuliu Mureșan, the president of the club, announced that the player will not reach FCSB. The boss from Gruia claims that there are several offers from abroad for the Superliga top scorer from last season.
Louis played the last official match on December 12, when CFR Cluj defeated Csikszereda, score 3-1.
