Market24 Aug 2026

Viitorul come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and CFR Cluj did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

As if he never left: Mihai Bordeianu returns

Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Mihai Bordeianu is a CFR Cluj player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Nikolay Komlichenko turns down CFR Cluj

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Lokomotiv Moscow keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

An offer of $230.0K for Mihai Toma

CFR Cluj have gone to FCSB with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at CFR Cluj

Sheriff Sinyan was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Too dear: CFR Cluj walk away from Narcis Ilaş

$330.0K was the most the club would pay and Botosani were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Andrei Cordea

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Yuval Sade attracts admirers

The name of Yuval Sade has come up in conversations CFR Cluj were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

CFR Cluj come up short against Dinamo Bucharest

Dinamo Bucharest left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Ştefan Târnovanu due for a CFR Cluj medical

Everything agreed with FCSB, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

CFR Cluj rebuffed over Paul Keseru

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Astra have kept their man, and CFR Cluj go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Kacper Tobiasz turns down CFR Cluj

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Legia keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Alibek Aliev stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alibek Aliev and CFR Cluj agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

An offer of $270.0K for Daniel Balasa

CFR Cluj have gone to Pandurii with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at CFR Cluj

Sheriff Sinyan and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Andrei Cordea was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 21. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Alibek Aliev

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

One of our own: Razvan Chiriches joins the CFR Cluj first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Razvan Chiriches is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

18 seasons of Ciprian Deac

511 appearances across 18 seasons in these colours. Careers like that are not built any more, and CFR Cluj know what they have.

Pachuca tell CFR Cluj: Oussama Idrissi is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

KAMAZ come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and CFR Cluj did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Sheriff Sinyan signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Sheriff Sinyan commits to CFR Cluj for another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A falling-out at CFR Cluj

Sheriff Sinyan and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Andrei Cordea runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words at CFR Cluj training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Christopher Braun is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market3 Aug 2026

Talks stall between CFR Cluj and Andrei Cordea

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

CFR Cluj try to borrow Kacper Tobiasz

Legia have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.
