Aco Stojkov will join Romanian top division side Botoșani for the upcoming 6 months.

After long negotiations between Aco Stojkov and Botoșani, the two sides have reached common ground on a 6-month deal with an option to extend it for an additional two years as well. Cornel Şfaiţer, Botoșani’s president, was quoted as saying, “After long talks with Stojkov’s agent, we have reached a 6 months contract and if we are pleased we can extend it for 2 more years. I am confident Stojkov will provide added depth in the attack.”

Botoșani will be the 14th club of Stojkov in his career, his first in the Romanian league. Stojkov also played his first match for his new club today. They won 2:0 against Pribram with Stojkov playing the first half. Both goals for Botoșani were scored in the second half.

Botoșani competes in the Romanian top division after winning promotion heading into this season.  Thus far, Botoșani finds itself in 12th place out of 18 teams with 20 points from its opening 19 rounds.  The league season in Romania will resume later this month.
