Igor Dobrovolschi and his staff were dismissed. Lilian Popescu was appointed as the new coach of Veris Chisinau. He was the one who contributed to the dismissal of Dobrovolschi after his team FC Costuleni drew 1-1 with Veris.

“I do not want to leave FC Costuleni, but Veris is a challenge for me. I want to qualify this team for the European cups,” Lilian Popescu has told IPN.

The coach decided that the first training sessions will center on physical fitness. Veris will not play in the next stage as Rapid withdrew from the national championship.

Lilian Popescu started his coaching career at Nistru Otaci, for which he played as well. He also trained the teams Olimpia and Costuleni.
