President of the Romanian Football Federation Rezvan Burleanu commented on the health of the head coach of the national team Mircea Lucescu and the possible further development of the federation due to the forced pause in work.

The words of the Rumanian functionary are reported by AGERPRES agency.

According to Burleanu, it is important for the Romanian Football Federation to monitor the health situation of the 80-year-old Fahivian. Representatives of the FFR took Lucescu to the hospital several times.

" The infection is still in the doctor's office, but not through a serious problem, as is the case with many. “Under medical supervision, we can see that in the coming days we will write him down,” telling Burlyana.

It is clear that in the near future Mircea Lucescu will have to go beyond the cordon to undergo another medical examination. Approximately until February 20th, the Federation will remove the remaining medical equipment, after which the decision for further work on the position of the head coach of the national team of Romania will be praised.

" Insanely, we will act confidently at that moment, if we know that Mr. Lucescu is healthy - I will first receive confirmation from doctors on the national level, and then from foreign doctors.

I wouldn’t want to immediately discuss replacement options, it would be incorrect for our head coach,” added the FFR president.

Apparently, earlier Mircea Lucescu had problems with his heart and the flu, through which the coach went to the doctor several times. At the same time, Fahivet himself told the patients that there is no serious threat to his health, declaring that “the situation with hospitalization has been overcome.

On 26 February 2026, the national team of Romania may play a playoff qualifying match for the World Cup 2026 against the Tureccini team.
