However, Marica’s bonus for taking his team to the Champions League might stand at around on million Euro, Gigi Becali told a TV station in Bucharest.


Thirty-year old Ciprian Marica has recently played for Turkey’s Konyaspor, a club with which he terminated his contract in October 2015. Marica has also played for Dinamo Bucharest, Shakhtar Donetsk, VfB Stuttgart, Schalke and Getafe.

He made his debut with the national squad on November 16, 2003, in a friendly game that saw Romania sustaining a 1-nil defeat against Italy. Then for the next decade Marica was a national squad regular. However, a string of younger teammates, among whom Constantin Budescu and Claudiu Keseru have contested Marica’s status at the national team in recent years.
