Vladislav Blănuță Returns to FCU Craiova
Vladislav Blănuță, the 23-year-old forward, has rejoined FCU Craiova following a productive loan spell at Universitatea Cluj, where he featured in 37 matches and netted 12 goals, also representing his country at EURO U21. Despite his return, transfer speculation surrounding Blănuță is heating up—with multiple foreign clubs reportedly in discussions to secure his services, and FCU Craiova holding out for a fee in the region of €4 million.
Blănuță, back in training with his old teammates, has spoken of his comfort in returning “home” and the positive atmosphere at the club. He highlighted the importance of hard work, determination, and patience—lessons learned during his season on loan—while stressing his commitment to helping FCU Craiova return to the top flight.
Negotiations are ongoing, with at least three foreign clubs expressing interest. However, there remains a gap between FCU Craiova’s valuation and current offers, though consensus could be reached in the coming weeks. Romanian clubs are priced out of the running due to the high transfer fee demanded. Blănuță’s imminent transfer could provide a significant financial boost for FCU Craiova, reinforcing his reputation as one of Romanian football’s most promising young talents.
