Elvir Koljic (30 years old), the striker from Rapid, made statements from the airport, before his team took off for Antalya, where they will support the winter camp.
Elvir Koljic was asked what he thinks about the fact that coach Costel Gâlcă declared after the failure with FCSB, 1-2, that the team of Rapid is not valuable enough to fight for the title.
“We have quantity, but we need quality players. I think so. If we want to achieve our goals, we need valuable players”, declared Gâlcă.

The Bosnian replied:
“I've been in football for a long time and we all hear the same thing when it's transfer time. Every coach wants as many players as possible, as good as possible, that's what Mr. Gâlcă wanted too. I hope we bring good players and complete the squad.
Everyone understands what they want, we still need players, let there be even more quality, and let every position be covered as well as possible”.
Elvir Koljic: “I want to win a trophy with Rapid”
Then, Koljic spoke about the aspirations of the Giulești players in the second part of the championship, but also about the main contenders. He left out Dinamo.
“A short vacation, but we all managed to rest, we came back yesterday and we are going to the training camp healthy. Honestly, I didn't watch the news, I was at home, I rested mentally and physically, anyone who comes is welcome and I hope to help us. It is definitely better in the training camp in Antalya, football has progressed, there is a lot of investment and I think it is much better to go to Spain or a country where hot
I know Paraschiv since he was at Hermannstadt, a good player, for sure he will be well received, to help us. Jambor is also here, Burmaz will come back after his injury, I think we have a healthy competition, it's important that we all be strong.
We are definitely thinking about the title, so far we have had a very good championship, we are in second place. We will fight until the last match, we'll see what happens. We want to win the championship or at least a trophy, cup or championship. It will be a very close championship, there are many teams.
First of all, I want to be healthy. To help the team, hopefully this year will be my year. Every striker wants to score more and have better numbers. It's the beginning of the year and we have to be good, we'll see how it goes. We must be united as a family. The toughest opponents are Craiova, FCSB, I say that CFR will also enter the play-offs, they have good players”, said Koljic.
