Suspended contract? Mihai Rotaru's decision, after the humiliation with U Cluj

Craiova is still in the chart. Now in 2nd place in the play-off, 3 points behind the leader U Cluj, the team is also qualified for the semi-finals of the Romanian Cup, where they will face Dinamo.

But the score defeat suffered at “Cluj Arena” alarmed the main shareholder of the club, Mihai Rotaru.

Mihai Rotaru's exhortation: “Stop giving statements!”

Rotaru conveyed to the other managers in the club that they are no longer allowed to give statements until the end of the season, so that the team coached by Filipe Coelho can benefit from as much peace as possibleas noted by digisport.ro.

The businessman has given up public appearances for several months already. Instead, honorary president Sorin Cârțu, general director Ovidiu Costeșin, sports manager Mario Felgueiras were also talking to the media.

Cârțu's contract with Prima Sport, temporarily suspended?!

The situation of Cârțu, an expert at the Prima Sport stations from September 2025, is interesting. Most likely, the Olten legend will de facto stop working with Prima, at least until the end of the ongoing championship.

Cârțu was present on the television set only once in the last two weeks, and then the main topic was the national team.

From now on, Craiova's representatives (coach Coelho, players) will talk to the press only at mandatory official actions, i.e. at press conferences and flash-interviews.

Only Pavel Badea has the right to speak 🙂

As Pavel Badea, the director of the Universitatea Craiova Sports Club, is not in the organizational chart of the Super League team, the embargo does not affect him either.

In fact, Badea analyzed the failure registered by Craiova in Cluj this morning, for GSP.ro: “It was a match in which Craiova, unfortunately, did not manage to win, primarily because of the mistakes of the players, more precisely of the team. It was a mistake that frustrated the team and led to an unlikely result.”
