Bucharest, Romania – July 21, 2025 — FCSB has officially secured the signing of experienced French striker Jordan Gele, in a move confirmed by club owner Gigi Becali and sporting director Ilie Lemnaru. The 32-year-old forward joins the Bucharest giants on a free transfer, adding depth and experience to the squad ahead of the upcoming season.
Gele, known for his physical style and goal-scoring instinct, has spent much of his career playing across Europe and Africa, with stints in France, Portugal, and Morocco. His most recent spell at Moroccan club AS FAR Rabat saw him score 12 goals last season, catching the attention of FCSB scouts.
“This is a striker with experience, strength, and leadership,” said Gigi Becali in a brief statement. “We believe Jordan Gele can bring something different to our attack. He’s not here for the future—he’s here to deliver results now.”
Ilie Lemnaru echoed Becali’s confidence, stating: “He’s the kind of player who can make a difference in tight matches. With the younger players in our squad, someone like Gele brings balance and maturity.”
Gele is expected to link up with the team immediately and could feature in FCSB’s next preseason fixture. His arrival comes at a crucial time as the club prepares for domestic and European challenges, aiming to reclaim the Liga 1 title and make a strong run in continental competitions.
Fans are already buzzing with anticipation, with many hoping that Gele’s veteran presence will give the team a much-needed boost in finishing and attacking options.
