Alexandru Albu, the 31-year-old central midfielder with experience in Romania’s top leagues and a Romanian national team cap, signed a two-year contract with Chindia Târgoviște, aiming to strengthen their squad in Liga 2 after the club’s historic partnership with FC Barcelona[1][2][3]. Albu addressed recent rumors about a conflict at FC Botoșani, clarifying that no physical altercation occurred and that his contract simply expired; he denied having pubalgia, attributing his fitness issues to a resolved injury[3]. His arrival is expected to bolster Chindia’s ambitions to avoid last season’s relegation scare and pursue promotion under new leadership and management changes[2].
This signing signals Chindia’s intent to rebuild strategically, blending experienced players like Albu with structural club improvements.
