Sepsi centre-back Sfântu Gheorghe said it is a moment in his career where he can take the next step, and both the sporting and financial factors will matter when he makes his decision about his new club team. Regarding sports performances, Ciobotariu can go to Dinamo, which is in 2nd place in the Superliga, while finances are much more stable at Rapid.

I am currently in Sepsis. I just want to talk about Sepsis and do my job here. I’m glad that I want teams and it means that I have done something in the seasons that have passed so far.

I am only focused on Sepsis now. I’m playing 100%, I’m doing my job and we’ll see what happens. All aspects will count when I make a decision, both sporting and financial.

Any defender at my age thinks about taking the next step, and that’s what I’m doing, regardless of whether I stay at Sepsi or not,” said Denis Ciobotariu, at DigiSport.

Marius Șumudică is a declared fan of Denis Ciobotariu: “I only want him!”

Marius Șumudică, coach of Rapidspoke freely about the potential move of Denis Ciobotariu, who will soon enter the last six months of his contract with Sepsi Sfântu Gheorghe. “Şumi” said that he really wants Sepsi’s central defender, and Rapid will negotiate for his transfer from the winter.

“I am happy with the group of players, I am not thinking about transfers. I keep reading nonsense that some players are giving up, that others are coming and that I don’t know what…

I stated that I only want one player, with whom we will enter into discussions in January, when he enters the last 6 months. You know very well, it is about Denis Ciobotariu.

Otherwise, I rely on the players who are here and who have to deliver for me. Every match is difficult. They have an experienced coach.

Mircea Rednic trained at an ok level throughout his career, from my point of view. He can make his mark on the game.

They have many players from Africa, the ones from UTA. We expect a tough match. They scored 18 points and are close to us. And they want to enter the play-offs, because they are close to us, and the fight is close.

I stole from Mircea Lucescu. I didn’t visit him at home (no laughs). I stole a job, I mean. He is one of my mentors.

Rareș Pop and Micovschi will stay at Rapid while Şumudica is here. UTA should take their thoughts from them”, said Şumudica at the press conference preceding the match with UTA Arad.
