Gheorghe Cretu’s future as head coach of Poland’s volleyball powerhouse, PGE Skra Belchatow, remains on shaky ground despite the team breaking their four-game losing streak with a 3-0 victory over Bedzin. While the win was a much-needed boost, it hasn’t been enough to reassure the club’s management, according to reports from Polish media.
Insiders suggest that a strained relationship between Cretu and the Belchatow leadership is the driving force behind the uncertainty. Sources like Interia Sport report that discussions about Cretu’s dismissal could see him leaving before the season concludes.

Speculation is already mounting about the next steps for both parties. Cretu is rumored to be eyeing a role as head coach for the Serbian national team, while Krzysztof Stelmach, recently released from his position in Toruń, is tipped as a potential successor at Belchatow.
For now, Belchatow holds the 8th spot in the league standings, but the future of their leadership remains unclear. Fans are left wondering: can Cretu mend the rift with the board, or will the club part ways with the Romanian coach?
