Petrescu to join Sainty after Targu cup victory
Print Edition
Coach Dan Petrescu led Targu Mures to its first major trophy with a 1-0 win over Steaua Bucharest in the Romanian Super Cup on Wednesday before he quit after one match in charge to join Chinese Super League side Jiangsu Sainty.
Petrescu was named coach of the Romanian league runner-up last month after signing a three-year contract, but the win over Steaua was his only official game in charge before he accepted a lucrative offer from China.
Mircea Axente scored the winner for Targu Mures midway through the second half following some good work and a precise assist from Polish defender Pawel Golanski.
鈥淪teaua was the better team in the first half and I shouted at the players at halftime 鈥楧o you want me to leave now?鈥,鈥 said Petrescu, who was one of Romania鈥檚 most notable players, winning 95 international caps and scoring 12 goals.
鈥淚t鈥檚 very hard to leave the team in this moment,鈥 the former Chelsea defender told reporters. 鈥淚 don鈥檛 how it鈥檒l be in China, I hope it will be like in Russia.鈥
Petrescu鈥檚 new club Jiangsu is sixth in the 16-team CSL standings with 25 points from 17 matches, 11 points behind leader Beijing Guo鈥檃n.
As a coach, Petrescu guided Unirea Urziceni to the Romanian league title in 2009.
He has also managed Poland鈥檚 Wisla Krakow, Russian clubs Kuban Krasnodar and Dynamo Moscow, Qatari side al-Arabi as well as Romanian teams Sportul Studenetesc and Rapid Bucharest.
