Money talks. Andrei Ivan, transfer to the Turkish second league team

Five and a half years after his return to Bănie, Andrei Ivan will leave Craiova University. Seen as a great hope of football, the striker has been in a shadow cone for a long time, so he preferred to leave the Olte formation, even if his team is fighting for the title this season.

Without scoring a goal in the last 20 games for Craiova University, Andrei Ivan said goodbye to his teammates and left to sign the contract with Adanaspor, a team that ranks 19th in the second league in Turkey. According to Fanatik, the attacker will receive a salary of 50,000 euros per month, twice as much as he earned in Banie.

Bought by Craiova from Krasnodar in 2019 in exchange for 1.5 million euros, Andrei Ivan has a contract with the “Juvets” until 2027, so the Turks are trying to take him on loan and if they avoid relegation to definitely buy.
