Dorinel Munteanu (57 years old), a contract free coach, told GSP.ro that he had discussions with teams from the first two leagues in Romania.

Dorinel has been free since April, since he broke up with Sepsi. He was on the list of several teams in Romania, but also from abroad, as he said for the Sports Gazette.

Dorinel Munteanu: “I had discussions with teams from Liga 1 and Liga 2”

Dorinel Munteanu did not reach an agreement with the clubs that contacted him and transmitted that he does not want to take a team with short-term plans.

Until I sign, I am only at the discussion stage. But the team I have to train will come. I also had discussions outside and in Romania. We spoke to us in the first league and in the second, with teams that want in the medium and long term to perform. I am not the kind of coach to take on a short-term team, only in the medium-long term.
