Handballer Christina Neagu has extended
her contract with CSM Bucharest for two more seasons, the Bucharest club has
announced on Tuesday. 31-year old Neagu has four times been designated the world’s
best handballer, in 2010, 2015, 2016 and 2018. A serious knee injury kept Neagu away
from the court for quite a long time, yet she had her comeback and as of late
has confirmed she was a piece de resistance in CSM Bucharest’s lineup. We recall
Neagu score 14 goals in CSM’s Champions League fixtures, against French side Metz
and Norway’s Vipers Kristiansand, respectively.


According to a piece of news also
made public by CSM Bucharest, Swedish coach Per Johansson returns to CSM’s
technical staff, this time as a deputy head coach. Johannson signed a contract
which is valid until the end of the ongoing season. We recall Per Johannson had
twice acted as head-coach for CSM in the past. With Per Johansson at the helm
CSM won two bronze medals in the Champions League, in 2017 and 2018. Teaming up
with Johannson will be head-coach Adrian Vasile. Johansson and Vasile also work
together at the helm of Montenegro’s national squad, for which Johansson is the
head-coach and Vasile his deputy.


Men’s handball teams CSM Bucharest and
Potaissa Turda on Tuesday found out their adversaries in the Challenge Cup
quarterfinals, CSM play Russian side Victor Stavropol, while Potaissa face Greek opponents
AEK Athens, according to the drawing of lots held in Vienna on Tuesday. CSM and
Potaissa will play the first leg of the tie away from home, on March 21st
or the 22nd, while the return leg will be played on home turf, on March
28 or 29. If they go through to the semifinals, Potaissa play the winner of the
match pitting Norway’s Halden Topphandball against Valur Reykjavik of Iceland. If
they go past the quarterfinals, CSM Bucharest play a Czech team, Karvina or Dukla Prague.
