Only the formalities remain before Florin Tanase’s transfer to Omonia is made official. The 31-year-old midfielder from Steaua Bucharest departed today (August 31) this morning for Cyprus to undergo the necessary medical exams and sign his contract.
Before boarding the plane, the Romanian soccer player spoke to the gsp.ro camera, expressing his excitement about playing for a historic team that competes in European competitions, while hinting that certain events had led him to leave the “Blue-and-Reds.”

In detail: “Yes, I’m joining an important club with a very long history. Now I’ll undergo medical exams. It’s a club that plays in European competitions. I’m happy. I really don’t want to talk about what’s happened over the last few days right now. I’ll do that in the near future.”
“I’m excited, because otherwise I wouldn’t have left. You know that Steaua is in my heart. I don’t regret not going to China. It was my own choice. I chose to stay home. Now it’s different because I have the chance to play in European competitions. I also spoke with Ilias. He told me a lot about the team.
It was my dream to play for Steaua. I’m happy I got to do it so many times. It was a dream come true. I feel fulfilled. Those years and the team will stay with me forever. I have a good relationship with the fans. I thank them very much for this time. And I want to tell them to stand by the team, because the players need that.”
“Recently, certain things have happened, and this was my decision. I’m not leaving with a heavy heart. I’m leaving with an open heart and I can’t wait to get to work. There was no conflict with Marius Baciu. It was something fabricated. I said after the match against Auda that we didn’t play well and didn’t deserve to advance. Where did the conflict come from? The problem is that no one from the club has clarified the situation. There have been a lot of players leaving the team. It’s difficult… But I hope the team will bounce back.”
