Football players around the world have been warned against moving to Romania because most clubs there struggle to pay salaries.
International players' union FIFPro has issued advice that ''the majority'' of clubs in Romania's top three divisions are in financial trouble.
FIFPro is warning that Romanian clubs look abroad for players ''who are ignorant of this situation.''
It says players risk ''sign(ing) a contract with a bankrupt club or a club that soon will no longer be able to pay.''
FIFPro says its member union in Romania can advise agents which clubs are financially sound.
A total of 148 foreigners, including 28 Brazilians, have contracts with Romania's 18 top-tier teams this season, according to a Neuchatel University study in Switzerland.
