Universitatea Craiova has developed an interest in Ararat Armenia's winger Zidane Banjaqui, a Guinea-Bissau international, after the 27-year-old's performance against their defense during the first-leg of their Europa League play-off match. Although Banjaqui did not score or provide an assist, his performance prompted Oltenian officials to make inquiries during the game. They were asking about the player wearing number 11, wanting to know his origins, contract length, and potential cost. Banjaqui joined the Armenian club in January 2026 and has 9 caps and 2 goals for his country. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €500k.
