The Post That Sparked a Firestorm

The drama didn't end when the contract was terminated. It only began. Baba Alhassan has finally addressed the Instagram post that ignited a firestorm among FCSB supporters, a digital flare shot into the sky just a day after Mihai Stoica announced the midfielder's departure. The message, seemingly suggesting relief at leaving the club owned by Gigi Becali, struck a nerve. But was it defiance or just the raw emotion of a sudden exit? Alhassan speaks out exclusively to ProSport, clarifying the chaos.

"It's okay, I was a bit nervous. You know how it is at FCSB," Alhassan explains, attempting to calm the storm. He admits the post was born from the heightened anxiety of the moment, not a calculated insult. The tension at FCSB is legendary, and Alhassan found himself in the eye of the hurricane. He insists that now, the dust has settled, and everything is back to normal. But for the fans who took offense, the words still echo.

Family Reasons and Final Goodbyes

Mihai Stoica left no room for ambiguity regarding Alhassan's immediate future. The midfielder was not even included in the squad for the crucial derby against Dinamo. The reason? A family matter. "Baba Alhassan won't be there at all. He has a problem, he needs to be with his family. He doesn't play in this match," Stoica stated firmly on Prima Sport. "He couldn't stay, really couldn't. Is Baba Alhassan history at FCSB? Yes, he is history!"

Alhassan arrived at the club in early 2024 from Hermannstadt for a fee of €600,000. The 26-year-old featured in 43 matches during the recent season, though he failed to find the back of the net. His journey ends here, abruptly, before the biggest stage.

The Stage Is Set for Dinamo

All eyes now turn to Friday night. FCSB faces Dinamo in the Conference League playoff final, a match that carries the weight of history. The clash kicks off at 20:30 on Friday at the Arcul de Triumf Stadium. FCSB coach Marius Baciu recognized the magnitude of the occasion, noting the deep-rooted passion surrounding the fixture. "Dinamo – FCSB, or as we knew it, Dinamo – Steaua. Very important matches for the football soul," Baciu remarked during the pre-match press conference.

He lamented that the game isn't played in a larger stadium, dreaming of 50,000 to 60,000 fans filling the stands. "We face a very good team, one that has made a beautiful impression recently. A team with continuity in terms of the coach and the ideas he has implemented into what Dinamo is today," Baciu added. The stage is set. The history is clear. Now, the football must speak.
