In response to rumours that Andrei Cordea is wanted by Daniel Pancu at Rapid, Marius Șumudică stated that there is no interest in any player from CFR and that it is not being considered.

Marius Șumudică stated that he had spoken with Andrei Cordea and Korenica, and that they said they have no concrete offers, are not thinking about leaving, and are focusing only on their work at CFR Cluj.

Rapid is reportedly interested in CFR Cluj's 27-year-old Romanian winger Andrei Cordea, as well as his teammate Meriton Korenica. According to fanatik, CFR Cluj's owner, Ioan Varga, responded to the situation, stating that he has only heard about the interest verbally and has not received any official offer for either player. Varga clarified that Cordea is valued at 2 million euros and can leave the club if that amount is paid, adding that if Rapid's interest in the transfer is serious, they should pay the fee. Cordea has 5 caps for Romania and joined CFR Cluj in July 2025. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €3.00m.
