Laszlo Dioszegi, the owner of Sepsi, spoke for the first time after the team's return to the Romanian Superliga.

Sepsi managed to return to the first division after only one year after relegation. The boss of Sepsi made a show after the final whistle of the match between Covăsneni and Chindia Târgoviște, score 1-1, which sealed the return to the first league. A few hours after the match, Dioszegi came with some statements about the feelings of the promotion, budget, objectives and the arrival of Marius Ștefănescu, former footballer of Covasne who was free from his contract in the winter

Laszlo Diosezgi: “I called the fans for fireworks and mitites! It was the first time I took painkillers before the match”

I live intensely for this club. It's my family and I'm very happy that we managed to bring smiles to thousands of viewers and tens of thousands of viewers. I brought some joy to their faces.

We were shaking from the 75th minute. We expected it to be difficult. That's why I didn't organize any celebration. Now we've called the supporters, at 18:00, for a firework display and some mitites. We didn't want to organize anything in advance because we knew it would be a tough match. Burcă stated that he promotes hard, in the last stages and so it was. The suspense was to the end. They had a header in the 83rd minute and I felt I couldn't do it anymore. It was the first time I took a pain reliever before the game. I have never had such emotions in football.

Each player has a stipulated contract and I can't say what bonuses they get, but they will go home with the salary collected for the last month, basically we end with zero debts towards the players. With us, the salaries were always up to date. Since we were established, the payment of salaries has not been delayed by even a week. This can be confirmed by all those who have been with us”, said Laszlo Dioszegi, according to liga2.ro.

Yes, it was the biggest budget in the history of the second league. At least what we had in League 2 we hope to have in the first league. I haven't talked to the sponsors yet, I will talk to everyone. Usually in the months of May, June I speak. But I am confident. In the first year the objective is to escape relegation. After a year we can talk about other plans. In the first year we have to rebuild.

Marius Ștefănescu was at the match. We didn't discuss. Today we celebrate and from tomorrow we start negotiations with players. Ștefănescu, while he was with us, his career went up. When he left here he went down. If he wants we can give him a chance to show his level.
