At 41 years old, Cristian Săpunaru hangs his boots in the nail, to work, most likely, in Giulești, as a sports director or as president, instead of Viorel Moldovan, who concludes his contract.
Cristi Săpunaru, a pure-blooded quickist
“Hello!
I was just a child when I stepped into the Giulești stands for the first time and fell in love with this team. In 2006, after years in a row where I dreamed I could wear the Rapid T -shirt the dream became reality and I got to dress the Rapid T -shirt for the first time.
All these years I spent at Rapid were an honor for me and I think that out of love for this club I would have been able to do anything.
I was fortunate to play in quite strong championships. I was fortunate to be the player of the national team, to wear the captain’s banner. But, you know how it is, in life all have an end.
The match with CFR Cluj will be my last match as a player of the Rapid on Giulești. It’s a hard match for me, but I won’t consider it like a goodbye. I will consider it as a new beginning and please remain the same supporters of the Rapid as you have always been. Come on, fast!”, Said, in the video for separation, Săpunaru, whose most important career trophy remains the UEFA Cup, conquered with FC Porto.
The message of “soap”
