49 -year -old Laurentiu Reghecampf explained why he chose to sign with Al Hilal Omduman, Sudan's champion, a country in full civil war.

Laurentiu Reghecampf surprised by the latest professional decision, to sign with the Sudan champion, the African country for more than two years in a civil war.

Today, in a live intervention in Port Sudan, a port city in the east of the country, Reghecampf explained what urge to get in this adventure.

He claimed that he was convinced of the possibility of conquering the Champions League of Africa with Al Hilal, especially for that trophy will also fight with Esperance Tunis, the Tunisian team that came out although he had an excellent course, of 16 victories, 6 draws and only two defeats in 24 match.

Laurentiu Reghecampf, from Sudan: “I signed here because I have the chance to win a big trophy”

“Now I am in New Port Sudan, it is a new city, where those who run the country have moved. But tomorrow I will leave, we go to the cantonment in Rwanda. Because of the war, [conducătorii] They moved here. But I didn't really care about this. I did not come here to analyze their political situation. It is Safe, a small town, at the Red Sea, one hour of Djedda.

I am at the hotel now, I have to solve many batch, staff, cantonment problems. The players are leaving for the national team, they have a tour in Tanzania. There are things you do on the team.

Why did I choose Al Hilal? First of all, because it gives me the chance to win a big trophy. At the level of pay that I have, it was about The only opportunity where I could win a big trophy, Champions League Africa.

Chances are that coach, there are many examples. You can take teams in the middle of the Qatar standings, you can take teams from Arabia or Emirate, but I didn't have another offer from a team to give me the chance to win a big trophy.

For me it would be a big trophy. First of all is a personal ambition for what happened to me with Esperance. I took it from the 6th place, I won the Super Cup, I qualified it in the Champions League and then I was dismissed and I didn't have the opportunity to continue in the Champions League. It is a personal ambition, I really want to win a big trophy in Africa, ”Reghecampf told Fanatik.ro.

He also explained that he signed “until the year, June 30, 2026, with an option of extension for another two years”.

In Africa there are some teams that can be beaten for this trophy. You have the teams from Egypt, Ai Esperance Tunis, you have the teams from South Africa, Algeria, with two very good teams, and Al Hilal in Sudan, a very large team, old in African football, one of the most important teams in Africa. They want to win the Champions League, this is the most important to me. They have a lot of fans throughout Africa, they are very loved and the ambitions are very large.

I think they have a slightly larger budget than FCSB. Often he gives up selling players on 2-3 million and ask for 5-6. In order to keep these players you have to give them very good salaries. From what I know, that I do not know the personal contracts of the players, the players are paid very well. Especially the foreign ones. And I have 14 foreign players. I am referring to African players, but not from Sudan. Most play at the national teams in their country.

Laurențiu Reghecampf, about how much he would get to Sudan: “There was no problem to go on 15,000! I'm very good”

Asked if he only receives $ 15,000 a month at Al Hilal, Reghecampf denied:

“No, no, no. Well, I don't discuss these financial things. Apart from me and a few close ones, nobody knows how much I earn this team. There is no question to sign on 15,000. Plus the staff I have available, there are 5 people, they will probably be 6. None of the coaches who come with me would come on salaries that do not correspond to their level.

I do not like to talk about the financial side, but for those who are so interested, they are very good from this point of view. If I win the Champions League, I reach a sum of 6 zeros. “

But the war? Laurentiu Reghecampf: “No incident happens in our area”

Reghecampf also claims that he is not afraid of the civil situation in Sudan, the country where the war in progress led to the death of over 150,000 people. In addition, around 12 million have left their homes in what the United Nations has called “the largest humanitarian crisis.”

“In the area where we are, no incident happens. Right last night I went to a table with the president and those of the Board of Directors. It seemed very ok. There are all things as they appear in the press. They have beautiful areas, areas where it is for sure.

Indeed, there are certain issues that I am not able to discuss. If there are security issues, we will certainly not play in Sudan. But for now, 80% next championship will play in Sudan. S

He wants very much for people to forget about the incidents they have in recent years, to return to football, to normal life. They want to give people moments of joy through football, ”said the coach, who was also asked about Comments made by his ex -wife, Anamaria Prodan.

Reghecampf answered Anamaria Prodan: “When I see her name, I go on”

“People who do not do what they are trying to stand out through other things. I do not want to answer anyone, I have no interest. I do not know if it is a step back or one before. For me it is a challenge, I am very aware and responsible for what I want to do. It is important that I come to work, I should not be ashamed.

Indeed, it is a country that has certain problems, but I did not come here to follow what is happening in the country, but for football. And this team gives me the opportunity to perform. It remains to be seen if it will be a step back.

But what to answer Ani? Seriously, do I answer them? I don't even know why she talks about me, but in the end, it's her job. He can do what he wants. I was expecting to talk, but I don't follow. The moment I see her name, they move on. I think everyone has to go on his way, to see his life.

I think that a little respect would be more ok. I have never commented on, nor will I comment on what she does in private life. And she should do the same, ”concluded Reghecampf.
