Valeriu Iftime about Miron-Albu Fight
FC Botoșani owner Valeriu Iftime revealed the outcome of the internal investigation following the physical altercation between Andrei Miron and Alexandru Albu during the team’s Austria training camp. Iftime stated that although the conflict escalated, the players later reconciled amicably. Albu left the club due to ongoing health issues rather than the fight itself, as his contract had expired and he suffered from pubalgia. Miron reportedly received a disciplinary sanction for his role in the incident.
Furthermore, Valeriu Iftime indicated that Hervin Ongenda might depart FC Botoșani due to persistent disciplinary problems and uncertainty about his return to the team amid family issues. The club is currently seeking reinforcement in central defense, attack, and a playmaker role.
This episode highlights FC Botoșani’s challenges balancing player discipline and squad stability ahead of the new season.
