Gică Hagi considers Robert Lewandowski for Romania's national team
Gică Hagi, now 61 years old, recently expressed his admiration for Robert Lewandowski, suggesting he would sign the prolific striker for Romania's national team. Lewandowski, 38, has an impressive record with 89 goals in 169 appearances for Poland, showcasing his undeniable talent on the field.
As Romania prepares for their upcoming match against Poland on October 2, 2026, the national team is looking to make strides after a challenging start in the Nations League. Romania currently sits at the bottom of Group B4 after losing its first two matches, including a 1-2 defeat to Sweden and a 2-4 loss to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In the upcoming match against Poland, Daniel Bîrligea is set to start, while Otto Hindrich, who has two caps for Romania, will also be in the lineup. Unfortunately, goalkeeper Ionuț Radu is facing an injury, which could impact the team's strategy moving forward.
Romania's squad features a mix of talent, including defenders like Andrei Rațiu, Tony Strata, and Radu Drăgușin, as well as midfielders such as Nicolae Stanciu and Cătălin Cîrjan. The attacking lineup includes familiar names like Ianis Hagi and Dennis Man.
Looking ahead, Romania will also face Sweden again on October 5 and will play against Bosnia and Herzegovina on November 17. This series of matches will be crucial for the team to regain momentum and improve their standing in the league.
