Otto Hindrich, the 23-year-old goalkeeper of CFR Cluj, is very close to a transfer to Legia Warsaw, former team of Edward Iordănescu. The Poles want to bring the young owner of Cluj this winter, and discussions are already underway.
Otto Hindrich (23 years old), one step away from career transfer! The Poles from Legia Warsaw, the former team of Edward Iordănescu, want the goalkeeper from CFR Cluj.
Otto Hindrich can leave CFR Cluj!
A 100% product of the CFR Academy, Otto Hindrich became one of Cluj's most important players, being the team's owner. He debuted at CFR Cluj, then played on loan at Poli Timișoara and Kisvarda, in Hungary.
In January last year, the 23-year-old goalkeeper signed a contract extension until 2028, but the Poles from Legia want to force the transfer in this winter's mercato period.
According to GSP, there are discussions for Hindrich's transfer to Poland, but at this point it is unclear if the move will happen this week.
CFR would not be willing to sell the 23-year-old goalkeeper, but for an offer that cannot be refused, the chances of him leaving are very high. “There are discussions and gropings. He is the owner of the team, one of the people we rely on. We have not received a clear offer at the moment, but there are movements of troops”support those in the club for GSP.
Legia wants Hindrich instead of Kacper Tobiasz
The main reason for the transfer is the possible departure of the post holder, Kacper Tobiasz, also 23 years old, quoted at 2 million euros, 700,000 euros more than Hindrich. Legia's team also includes Gabriel Kobylak, a goalkeeper of the same age as Hindrich and Tobiasz.
“I had a subscription to the CFR lawn and I think it was the 2010 Supercup with Urziceni. And I got on the chair to see how the trophy was given and I fell between the chairs and my leg got stuck, I was crying. I think I was 5-6 years old and my brother used to put me in the goal and my father took me to football. I wanted to be a goalkeeper. It went well with my brother and I stayed there. I didn't even try anything else”, said Otto in an interview for superliga.ro.
I would like to be a role model for the children who start their junior years at CFR, to see that it is possible to reach from the age of six, to reach the big team and play so many matches
