Romanian players face scrutiny and injury in Turkish Super Lig

Romanian footballers are facing challenges in the Turkish Super Lig. Following Gaziantep FK's 1-1 draw against Alanyaspor, local Turkish media have criticized the team's squad and performance. Florin Ștefan, a left-back recently transferred from Universitatea Craiova, faced harsh scrutiny from journalists after starting the match, with some expressing doubt regarding his role in the starting lineup.

Simultaneously, Alanyaspor has announced that Ianis Hagi has suffered an adductor tendon injury in the groin area. The exact duration of his absence remains unknown. This injury poses a potential concern for the Romanian national team, managed by Gheorghe Hagi, ahead of upcoming Nations League fixtures against Sweden and Bosnia & Herzegovina in September.
