Dinamo Bucharest has two missions to successfully complete. To win the championship title in Romania and to convince Kosovo striker, Astrit Selmani, to extend his contract, which expires at the end of the current season.
But Selman's request is unaffordable for Romania's elite club.
Dinamo president Andrei Nicolescu has not revealed Selmani's demands. However, Romanian media outlet "Fanatik" has revealed that Selmani has requested a salary of 25 euros per month.
"We have two players in this situation, Selman and Josue. We are still in talks. They are professional players and the club treats them with respect. We are trying to make the most of this situation. It is not up to us as far as Selman's case is concerned. We did everything we could, now it depends on his discussion with the manager. We cannot give more details," Nicolescu told Romanian media outlet "Fanatic" on Thursday.
The 27-year-old Selmani is the team's top scorer with 11 goals. He is five goals behind Cluj's Louis Munteanu, who leads the list of top scorers in the Romanian top flight.

Selmani joined the Romanian team in February last year as a free agent, after leaving the Israeli team Beer Sheva.
Dinamo is in fifth place with 45 points. There are two games left until the end of the regular season.
Dinamo Bucharest are pleased with Selmani's influence, who is leading the team towards the playoffs of the Romanian Super League and consequently into the title race.
Asked by Fanatik whether Selmani had requested a monthly salary of 25 thousand euros, the president of the Romanian club refused to provide details.

"Our salary fund is below the top 6 teams, a little more than 200 thousand euros per month. Our offer and the final discussion is with his manager. It is a matter of concept, what he sees as important during the summer. It would be a big loss if he leaves, just as everyone said it was a loss to keep him after last season. Everyone told us to leave him, that he was not for Dinamo. What we now consider a big loss is not having him after the end of the championship," said Nicolescu.
Besides Selmani, several other Albanian footballers have successfully performed and continue to perform in the Romanian championship.
