Scouts from French club Lille and Belgian side Genk were reportedly present at a match to watch FCSB's 28-year-old Romanian captain and attacking midfielder, Darius Olaru. Both clubs are interested in a potential transfer for the player. Olaru has a 5 million euro release clause at FCSB, and the club's owner, Gigi Becali, will not negotiate on this amount. Lille secured a Champions League spot after finishing third in their domestic league, while Genk will compete in a play-off for a place in the Conference League. Olaru, who joined his current club in January 2020, has a contract that runs until June 2028 and has earned 27 caps for the Romanian national team.
