Gigi Becali (67 years old), the boss of FCSB, claims that he received an offer of 7 million euros for striker Daniel Bîrligea (25), author of seven goals this season.
In the telephone intervention following the victory with U ClujGigi Becali claimed that he received, from the United States, an offer for striker Daniel Bîrligea. The landowner's statements came a few minutes after he also revealed that he had sent a message during the match that Bîrligea should be changed!
Gigi Becali: “Right now, I have an offer of 7 million euros for Bîrligea!”
“Look, at this time I have 7 million, to sell Bîrligea. I don't want to give him! I don't want! I don't hope to get anything at this time, because at this time I'm in the bucket. As such, I'm not interested in the money. At this time, Bîrligea must score goals, to get me out of the situation I am in.
In the winter it will be different, I give this one 8-10 and take Louis Munteanu with 3. I also say, I don't know, maybe the man wants it more. That much I would give. At this time, as it is, I give 3. And now, on the spot, even if he does not play at all! I give 3 million and take it in the winter.
The offer is from America, from the MLS. But anyway there are no transfers now, then there was no point in negotiating. Bîrligea impresses in certain moments if it has ambition, it invents goals.
He invented that goal, pressing the goalkeeper and then giving the sign of the cross, empty with his chest. His goal, invented by him. The Steel Hollow, invented by him. These are the great footballers. That's why I have demands from him, that he is a special player. I need him”, said Becali to PrimaSport.
Gigi Becali: “I sent a message during the match, let Bîrligea run!”
Before talking about the interest in Bîrligea, Becali revealed that he asked the staff to tell Bîrligea to run more. In the 79th minute, the landowner put him on top.
“I told Bîrligea during the match: “Well, tell Bîrligea to run, because he will be changed. He didn't understand. “Well, tell him one more time”. He didn't understand. “Tell him to run, because he doesn't want to run anymore”. He didn't understand, change!
It's the first time I've done something like that, because today I got angry. I have never taken my word for it. But I got angry! What if it's 2-0? Play me! Run!” Becali had said.
Bought from CFR Cluj for almost 3 million euros, Daniel Bîrligea scored 24 goals in 55 matches at FCSB.
