The 19-year-old goalkeeper Plamen Andreev had to fly to the Netherlands today to undergo medical tests and finalize a dream transfer to the giants from Rotterdam, Feyenoord. About 1.5 million euros (about BGN 3 million) were expected to go to the coffers of the “blues”.
On Monday, when it became clear that the big deal was “baking”, Plamen Andreev left the evening training of the “blues” prematurely. The guard is suffering from a viral illness and has had to keep himself as much as possible ahead of medical tests at his potential new club.
That was hardly going to be a problem. But another one appeared, a really serious one. Current Feyenoord goalkeeper Justin Bailow has failed to pass his mandatory medical at Southampton, scuppering his move to St Mary’s. This was announced on Tuesday by journalist Fabrizio Romano. It was the sale of Baylow that triggered the transfer of Plamen Andreev. There is no official statement from Feyenoord on the subject. It is unclear whether they will not accept another offer for Bylow.
But the new circumstances have stopped Plamen Andreev’s flight to Rotterdam for now – literally and figuratively. The goalkeeper will not fly today from Sofia to Rotterdam. Whether this means the end of the dream or just a postponement remains to be seen.
At the same time, Levski was enraged by two other “internal” problems. The bosses from “Gerena” were angry that “Spartak” (Vn) raised the price of tickets for “blue” fans from BGN 20 to BGN 30 for the upcoming match in the maritime capital. They were also enraged by the new idea of BFS to move the derby with CSKA to another date in order to have visiting fans.
