"We hold Sepsi under the guillotine. If I see that Sepsi OSK is getting stronger, I will invest ten million euros," said Gigi Becali.
"If Orbán dares to do something, I'll beat him in the head" - such and similar statements were made by Romanian billionaire Gigi Becali at a press conference on Tuesday.
The businessman - who was previously a member of both the Romanian and European Parliaments - is the owner of FC Steaua Bucuresti (FCSB), a capital team in the Romanian first division. Last week, Viktor Orbán attended a match of the Sepsi OSK team in Sepsiszentgyörgy , and was also at a soccer match in Csíkszereda.
At the press conference - which, by the way, was about the appointment of a new coach - Sepsi OSK was mentioned in connection with the fact that they won both the Romanian Cup and the Super Cup this year. According to Főtér.ro, Gigi Becali said: if György Sepsiszent continues to advance in the Romanian football league, he will also take steps. Among other things, he said that
1. "We keep Sepsis under the guillotine. If I see that Sepsi OSK is getting stronger, I will invest ten million euros."
2. "We will destroy everything connected to the Sepsi OSK. I will only invest in football if Sepsi OSK rises. I will not allow him to win the championship in Romania."
3. "I will not let the Hungarians go through the FCSB. They will never go through a Romanian team in their lives."
He added that the same is true even if not the Sepsi OSK, but the team from Csikszereda gets stronger in the near future.
When Orbán dares to do something, I beat him in the head. Phew, down with Sepsi!
