Gigi Becali (67 years old), the owner of the FCSBspoke again about his transfer Florinel Coman (27 years old), the day after the success in the derby with Rapidscore 2-1. The contract of the Romanian international with Al-Gharafa expires in 2027, and the financier of the red-blues explained the conditions under which he wants the player.
At least three more players will arrive at FCSB, and one of them could even be Comansold in the summer of 2024. But the Qatari club must pay him more than half of his salary, claims Becali.
VIDEO | Florinel Coman, wanted by Becali at FCSB: “I will talk to him”
“I don't know anything about Florinel Coman, I'll talk to him now that he's coming home for the holidays. If I give him (Al-Gharafa) the money, 2 million a year, he should give him a million, I will also give him 6-700,000 and come here.
You will see the transfers, I said 5 will come, but 3 will come. The experiments will be with me all my life. you come to Becali, he puts you there, let's see how you are, good or how you are, come out, leave, another one comes. I spoke with Ciubotaru's father, I said we would talk after the match. I understood that he spoke on TV, said that he is not coming to FCSB, just out of respect, like that.
I didn't call his father either, if he said he wasn't coming, let him be healthy. Financially, I don't say that 2025 was extraordinary, I say good. Why good? So far, we have collected, let's say, about 10 million euros from Europe alone.
The problem is that the money comes later, 5 million or so. I can take another 7-8-10 million from the qualification. I think it's a good year. I took 1.4 million euros cool, the money on Coman. Everything is only about money in this world. I will strengthen the team now, we beat Zagreb, with Fenerbahce I have no emotion.
You have to take the title from me. The fight will be only and only and only with Craiova. You will see if I know football, this is about value, in football you can score, as Rapid did, 3 goals from 3 deflections.
I didn't expect Gălcă, he's a smart boy, he saw, it's right, people criticize him, the man said what he sees, he said there's no way he can win the championship, that he can't, let someone else win it, he can't with that team”, said Gigi Becali, at the palace in Aleea Alexandru.
Florinel Coman played 10 matches this season for Al-Gharafa, during which he scored 2 goals and provided an assist. He is quoted by the specialized website Transfermarkt at 5 million euros.
Since July 2024 in Qatar, Coman has played 29 matches, scoring 5 goals and providing 9 assists.

If he were to return to FCSB, the team that sold him for 6 million euros, Florinel Coman would follow the path of Florin Tănase, who returned to the red-blue shirt in the summer of 2024, after two years at Al Jazira and Al Okhdood.
Bought by FCSB in the summer of 2017, for 3 million euros, Florinel Coman ticked off 233 matches and 63 goals for the red-blues, winning a championship title.
What Gigi says about the derby won with Rapid: “I didn't want 3-0!”
Becali admitted that he communicated to the coaches that the team needed to defend at 2-0 without forcing a third goal. This happened and could cost FCSB the win.
“In this situation, we didn't have any emotion, that is, we had the ball only, no opportunity, nothing, not even at the end, we didn't have any more. They couldn't reach the goal, one commented that it's 2-0, but Rapid can win. Well, crazy, we withdrew, but that's what I told them, that I don't want 3-0 anymore, don't make it 3-0.
Me when I'm 2-0, nice, come back me, tac-pac, I don't need the third goal anymore. And they screwed up, I'm in control, I don't want 3-0, if I don't want 3-0 what's the matter? And they listened to me.
We sat well in our bank. I have nothing to say about the refereeing, the only thing that bothered me, when that guy pulls Lixandru by the shirt and falls down and gives a foul, if it comes out empty? That bothered me, you can't give something like that. Kovacs is the referee, but I have nothing to complain about,” added Gigi.
I didn't feel sorry for my enemies (Craiova), that you are at war with him, it never exists, although it should have, but what's the matter, that I forced myself not to talk about it because something like this doesn't happen even in 500 years (elimination from Europe).
I don't want to talk, why put yourself in their shoes? If something like this happened to me, would it suit me? Something fantastic happened, it is not nice to comment, the enemy must be destroyed, shattered.
Fines will be taken by Bîrligea, but the fact that he gave that pass… one thing if you do good to me pleases me and I am forgiving.
