Andrei Nicolescu came up with new information about the first transfer of 2026: “He's Romanian!”

The Dynamo president had announced the move since yesterday, but he also came with additional details. The president of the “dogs” also mentioned the fact that the player is Romanian.

When asked if it was about Bogdan Vătăjelu, the official of the 4th place team in the Superliga said that he did not want to comment on the rumours.

Andrei Nicolescu, information about the first transfer of 2026: “Double for Opruț. He is Romanian and he is a real back up”

“I had four positions to cover. I covered one, backup at Opruț. (no Vine Vătăjelu?) No, I really don't want to talk because I promised that on January 2 there would be a presentation and that's it. It is important that he is a real backup and he is Romanian. He has very good potential to be there next to Opruț.

We have open discussions for centre-backs. We are looking at the Romanian market. It's not a secret because we've talked before about potential targets in Romania. We also look outside. We also have an option there for a foreign player that we consider very good, but we are still negotiating because it is also about the budget. It is not from the former Yugoslavia.

We have an option for an outside central midfielder that we are looking at closely and are in negotiations with. We love it, even if it's a position we feel we have covered. We are in a good area there. We are passionately looking for the striker who will give us better numbers”, Andrei Nicolescu said on the Fotbal Show show from Prima Sport.

For us it's simple. The decisions we make moving forward for some players are based on analytics. Our analysis has told us that we can go to certain limits in the offer we make. And I took into account his age, where he played, what he has done lately, in the Romanian league, what claims the parties have. All this was taken into account and we arrived at some figures that were not enough.

What Andrei Nicolescu sent yesterday: “It seems that we have concluded with one already and we will announce soon”

“Looks like we've closed on one already and we'll be announcing soon. He's a defensive player.

And Vătăjelu is on our list, yes. The ideal would be to cover several positions, one being the left defender, where a double is needed, so that we have a team that allows us to play on two fronts, because we want to evolve in the European cups. We are in open discussions with several players”
