Aflat pe locul șapte cu FCU Craiova, la doar un punct de zona play-off-ului, Adrian Mititelu primește o veste proastă din partea autorităților locale.
Adrian Mititelu, owner of FCU Craiova, is publicly accusing Mayor Olguța Vasilescu of intentionally obstructing the team's progress. He claims that a recent decision by the local council, which he is critical of, is politically motivated and designed to hinder the team's success. He even goes so far as to state that "FCU stă în gât doamnei primar" ("FCU is a thorn in the Mayor's side"). The conflict appears to be fueled by a personality clash and a perceived power struggle between Mititelu and Vasilescu.
