Romania offers a case worthy of the X-Files: a player released noisily by Hagi, who disappeared after leaving the country

The way the stars of the Romanian competition disappear from the front, once they leave the country’s borders, is a situation worthy of the X-Files!

Here, it is worth mentioning the case of <a href="https://www.world-today-news.com/vitesse-signs-american-paxten-aaronson-on-loan-from-eintracht-frankfurt-for-premier-league-boost/" title="Vitesse Signs American Paxten Aaronson on Loan from Eintracht Frankfurt for Premier League Boost”>Adrian Mazilu (19 years old). Before Gheorghe Hagi (59 years old) hit himself with his fist in the chest until it came big. In fact, Farul’s manager came to this conclusion, seeing how Mazilu shone under his leadership in the 2022/2023 season, the one in which Farul won the championship. Mazilu added to this performance with six goals in 19 games in our Super League. With such a record, Brighton, a team in the Premier League, was sure to pay three million euros for an 18-year-old player. And Mazilu went to England in January 2024.

The young footballer’s problems began after he was spotted by Brighton officials in training. Although Hagi had said, suddenly, that Mazilu was taken for the first team in Brighton, the truth was against him. The player was loaned to Vitesse Arnhem in the Netherlands. Here, Mazilu spent the second part of last season. His record: four matches in which he collected 66 minutes on the field! That’s no achievement. Those 66 minutes are also the only ones for Mazilu on the football fields, in official matches, since he left Romania.

At the moment, Adrian features as part of the Brighton Under 21 team. This team plays in a competition called Premier League 2, where they are in 2nd place after seven rounds. Next to Maziul is a zero on the line, at Brighton Under 21.
