Daniel Oprița to leave Steaua București after seven years

Daniel Oprița is departing from Steaua București after a seven-year tenure. Following a period of tension and a poor start to the season—where the team earned only one point in four matches in Liga 2—Oprița reached an agreement with the club leadership to terminate his contract.

Reports indicate that Oprița is set to join Chindia Târgoviște, who recently dismissed their coach, Nicolae Croitoru. The move comes amid financial difficulties at Steaua, including a reported 30% budget reduction, and dissatisfaction with squad depth and player attitudes.

As Steaua seeks a replacement, former player Eugen Trică has expressed strong interest in taking over the position. The club management has stated they intend to strengthen the squad with both Romanian and Spanish players to address the current crisis.
