Andrei Nicolescu, the president of Dinamo, announced the return of the striker Mamoudou Karamoko (26 years old) just before tonight's conference league play-off final with FCSB.

  • Dinamo – FCSB, for the last place in the Conference League, will be played on Friday evening, on the “Arcul de Triumf”, from 20:30. The match will be liveTEXT on GSP.ro and on TV on Prima Sport 1 and Digi Sport 1

The Frenchman hasn't played since April 18, when he played 39 minutes in the 2-1 play-off win against U Cluj, and then missed all the matches due to an injury. He will return for the last game of the season and will start on the bench, from the reserve position, the game with FCSB, and it will be decided along the way whether he will enter or not, especially since Zeljko Kopic does not have many offensive solutions, especially after Alex Pop has a wedding scheduled and will be absent.

“It is the most important match of the season. There were many important moments, but this has become the most important. We are good, with pluses and minuses. Puscas is there with us, it is a plus.

Minuses, Pop is getting married, we've known for some time. It's not ok, but we can't blame him either, he scheduled it a year ago. You can't accuse him, it's not something done lately. I think he thought it wouldn't be on a Saturday, but it turned out like this.

Karamoko will be on the bench, yes, hopefully he will help us for 20 minutes. Mărginean is with us and he played last week, he is in rhythm, he helps us”, said Andrei Nicolescu, on Prima Sport, before the Friday night game, the most important test of the season for the team from Ștefan cel Mare.
