Jeonbuk is appointing Petrescu from Romania to the head coach position, which has been vacant since manager Kim Sang-sik resigned. Currently, according to the Romanian media, if the Korean work visa issue is resolved, he will part with CFR Cluj, which he is currently in charge of, and take the helm of Jeonbuk without any problems.

In the midst of this, in an interview with the Romanian media <Digi Sport>, Ziku drew attention by presenting a positive outlook, mentioning Petrescu’s leadership and the environment in Jeonbuk. 

At the time of entering the K-League, Zico, who received a lot of attention because of his career as ‘from Inter Milan’, said of coach Petrescu, “He is a perfect leader. His strict leadership method on and off the pitch is what Koreans like the most. The type of leader who works without a moment’s rest is Director Petrescu,” he said, commenting that he really suits the Korean people’s tendency.

In addition, Ziku said, “Director Petrescu has served as a leader in China twice in the past.” I thought it would be easy to adapt. He then introduced the advantages of Jeonbuk, which has the best infrastructure in the K-League, saying, “Jeonbuk is a team with unique environmental conditions that exceed that of many European clubs. This is not an exaggeration.”

Meanwhile, coach Petrescu is expected to enter Korea during the A-Match week, identify Jeonbuk players, and focus on the upcoming K-League match. Jeonbuk recorded 7 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses (24 points) in the Hana One Q K League 1 2023 after the 17th round, and is currently ranked 7th.
