Mouhamadou Drammeh, 26 years old, told how the mood is at U Cluj after the invincible streak of the last month and what expectations he has for the match between Mioveni and FC Argeș (Mioveni, Saturday, 20:30)

Mouhamadou Drammeh, 26, is one of the most prized central midfielders in the Super League this season. Summoned again to the Gambia's first representative team, the Parisian hopes that U Cluj will continue the streak of victories.

They have won seven in a row in the Superliga and the Romanian Cup.

Mouhamadou Drammeh, about the success with U Cluj and what will follow with FC Argeș

“We are ready for the match with FC Argeș after a nice victory (n.red 2-1 with CFR Cluj). It will be the second match in the play-off, and we trained well.

Difficult to concentrate (after a success in Cluj Derby) I wouldn't say, because we are professional football players. After the game, we can celebrate for a day, but then we have to focus on the next game, because it comes pretty quickly.

Yes, we did well, we won the derby, but the next day is already over. We have to focus on what's next. The victory with the rival had a very good taste. But, as I said, there will only be two play-off games against CFR. There are eight others.

It is very nice to win, because we are proud of us, our family, all the fans and the whole city, because I think that the city is with “U” Cluj, not with CFR! We are proud for the whole city, but now we have to focus on the next match, with Argeșul”, reacted the central midfielder.

We are not surprised by the position of FC Argeș, it has been up since the beginning of the season. We can't be surprised by them because the season is now in March, so it's been seven, eight months since they've been doing this, so we can't be surprised. We know they are very dangerous and it won't be easy to win there

What would it be like to become a champion?! The reaction of the staff of U Cluj

The seven of U keeps his head on his shoulders, even if he thinks about what it would be like to become the champion of Romania.

“Dream? No, honestly, I'm not dreaming, because I know we can do it. But right now we're not thinking about that. We're just thinking about preparing well, working hard and winning games. And of course, if we win games, we'll do something big at the end, but I wouldn't say it's a dream.

I would say maybe it's a goal, but not a dream. We just work and prepare well to win matches and in the end we will be rewarded”, reacted the black and white midfielder.

For me, a national team match is coming up, against Senegal, the winner of the Africa Cup. Senegal is also my father's country, so it will be special for me. I have to be proud of myself, but it's also because of the club that gave me the opportunity to work, play and show what I'm capable of
