    In 6 stages, Rapid obtained 5 points and is in 11th place, 9 points behind the leader Universitatea Craiova, which has 14 points out of 18 possible.

    Rapid will pay between 250,000 and 350,000 euros to part with Neil Lennon and his assistants
    As you could read this morning on digisport.ro, Rapid made the decision to part with Neil Lennon , and this will happen very soon, although the match with Poli Iasi, from the 7th round, is scheduled for Friday , from 22:00, broadcast live on Digi Sport 1.

    There was a lot of discussion about the amount that Dan Șucu and Victor Angelescu would have to pay for the termination, given that Lennon also has a large staff, consisting of 5 seconds. It was concluded that the compensation should amount to almost two million euros because the entire contract should be paid to Lennon and his collaborators.

    However, according to Digi Sport information, the money that the owners of Rapidu will take out of their accounts would be between 250,000 and 350,000 euros, depending on how many of the coaches are leaving, and it is not excluded that the people of Giulești may propose to some of them to continue at the club.


    What bothered the people at Rapid and made them give up on Lennon
    The fact that Neil Lennon has been involved in several controversies since joining the club did not sit well with the Rapid managers, which contributed to the decision.

    But first of all. Şucu and Angelescu are not satisfied with the game and the results. The difference in points from the 1st place ended up being very big, and Rapid remained the only team without any victory!

    After the match with Dinamo, score 1-1, Lennon made a statement at the press conference that did not go down well with the two financiers.

    " We also need to strengthen ourselves, because now we play with many young players because we have to.

    They want me to resign for three, four weeks, that's not going to happen. I understand the lack of patience, but I think maybe we're getting too much at the moment because of the lack of quality we have in certain areas and what we've inherited as well ," said Lennon after Rapid - Dinamo 1-1

    What Neil Lennon said exactly three months ago, when he signed with Rapid
    On May 20, 2024, Neil Lennon signed a two-season contract with Rapid, and his goal was to finish in the top 3 and win the Romanian Cup. Three months on, very few positives have been seen throughout the team.

    "I hope to create a strong connection between myself and the fans, but that comes with getting positive results and performing. It is my responsibility. I know they are very passionate supporters who love the club. They are similar to Celtic fans. I want us to perform, that's my main goal.

    I hope to meet the supporters soon and I will do everything possible to perform with Rapid" , said Neil Lennon for fcrapid.ro , on May 25.

    I think he is a terrible manager unfortunately. What he brought here in his first stint was "Thunder". Might sound ridiculous but i think it is the best way to describe it. Gerrard did the same to the scumbags. Brought that "everyone is against us" mentality which got the squad giing 250% for him.

    Daniel Sandu (31 years old), sports director at Rapid, spoke exclusively for iAMsport.ro about the situation of Neil Lennon (53 years old) at the Giulești club.


    Neil Lennon has not recorded the best results on the technical bench of Rapid, since his arrival in the summer at the club from Giulesti.

    The British coach would no longer be on the bench for the "white-cherries" in the match with Poli Iași, which will take place on Friday, August 23, informs Digi Sport

    Daniel Sandu's reaction on Neil Lennon
    Contacted by iAMsport.ro , Daniel Sandu specified the situation of the Northern Irish technician at Rapid at this moment.


    "I know that Mr. Neil Lennon is in training now, so I have nothing to say. He's at the Constructor at the base, we have training at this time.

    (no. So his departure is not expected?) I don't think so. I haven't heard of anything like that," said Daniel Sandu.


    Neil Lennon refuses to resign
    Supporters of the team near Grant Bridge are unhappy with the former Celtic manager's results and have repeatedly called for his resignation. He declared that he will remain on the team's bench.

    ”(no Do you know what resignation means?) I don't know what it means. (no the fans have been chanting you, they want you gone) They've been wanting me to resign for 3 weeks now, it's not going to happen, I understand there's a lack of patience, but I think we're above expectations now given the lack of value in certain areas and what we inherited. I'm very disappointed and frustrated that I didn't win. The players give everything, but we have no luck" , said Neil Lennon, at the end of the match with Dinamo

    I think only Scottish championship sides would only take a gamble on him you look at managers like Tony doc and how professional he is bit of a bench mark these days

    Not sure cut his teeth is the correct term, he's won 5 Leagues, 4 Scottish Cups and a League Cup as manager..

    Re-establish himself in Scotland maybe better.
