Daniel Bîrligea leaving FCSB?
Gigi Becali, the owner of FCSB, disclosed that he had received a substantial offer of ten million euros for his striker, Daniel Bîrligea. Although Becali did not reveal the name of the team, sportpesurse.ro suggested that the offer came from Al-Sharjah, a team coached by Cosmin Olăroiu and located in the Gulf region. To secure Bîrligea, the Gulf team would need to increase the offer to 15 million euros, which is the release clause for the striker. Becali expressed his disinterest in the current offer, indicating that he had received an offer but was not interested.

Nevertheless, he turned down the offer and demanded 25 million euros, noting that the player has a release clause of 15 million euros. Despite the opportunity for a two million euro salary in the Gulf, Gică Craioveanu recommended that Bîrligea remain in Europe to further his development and only consider a move to the Arab region when he reaches the age of 28. Craioveanu highlighted that staying at FCSB would be advantageous for Bîrligea's career and the national team.

However, he indicated that he would not settle for just 10 million euros, as Bîrligea's release clause is set at 15 million euros.
