CSKA 1948 faces leadership scrutiny after Europa League exit

CSKA 1948 faces internal turmoil following their elimination from the Europa League by Greek side OFI Crete, losing 0-5 on aggregate. The defeat has prompted sharp criticism from club legend Georgi Iliev, known as ‘Maikla’, who called for resignations. Iliev criticized coach Hristo Yanev for the team's performance and questioned the leadership's responsibility for failing to take action against the coaching staff.

Amidst the sporting crisis, rumors have emerged regarding potential changes in club ownership. Former administrative director Milko Georgiev reported rumors that Kiril Domuschiev, owner of Ludogorets, may be interested in acquiring a portion of the club's shares. While Georgiev noted these claims might be speculative, the possibility of Domuschiev's involvement has surfaced following the team's poor European showing.
