Mirel Rădoi Leaves FCSB for 75-Day Suspension Plan
Mirel Rădoi leaves FCSB amid reported tensions with club owner Gigi Becali. He is set to join Turkish side Gaziantep after the weekend.
Why the move happened
Rădoi’s departure follows a strained relationship at FCSB. He will take over a club shaken by recent controversy.
What happened at Gaziantep
Burak Yilmaz resigned after a 1-2 league loss to Rizespor. He publicly criticized refereeing decisions after that match.
Turkish press reports say the federation suspended Yilmaz for 75 days. A fine of €22,000 was also imposed, according to those reports.
Yilmaz’s remarks and context
Yilmaz called the current environment impossible for honest coaches. He added he hopes to continue his career in Europe.
Yilmaz is a national figure in Turkey. He scored 31 goals for the national team during his playing career.
Refereeing issues in Turkey
Turkish football has faced refereeing scandals recently. Last autumn, more than a hundred referees were suspended for betting.
Accusations persist of biased decisions and power plays that benefit certain clubs. Gaziantep has been named among teams that feel disadvantaged.
Gaziantep’s situation on the table
The club sits 11th in the Turkish league standings. They trail European qualification by 21 points.
Gaziantep are nine points clear of the relegation zone. Four league matches remain this season.
- Eyupspor (Monday night)
- Beşiktaş
- Goztepe
- Başakşehir
Rădoi’s immediate role and restrictions
Rădoi cannot manage Gaziantep for the remainder of this season. He already coached two Romanian clubs this year: Universitatea Craiova and FCSB.
His initial task will likely be to plan for the next season. The club expects him to prepare longer-term strategies.
Timing and farewell at FCSB
Rădoi is expected to end his FCSB tenure after the fifth play-out round. He should travel to Turkey the following day to finalize his contract.
Reports describe his move as part of a broader plan influenced by the 75-day suspension of his predecessor. The plan aims to stabilise Gaziantep ahead of next season.
