"I want to analyse the situation," 51-year-old Hagi told
reporters on Tuesday, adding that he will be replaced by his
assistant Catalin Anghel, who was coach from 2009 to 2013.
"I still don't know if I'll be here in the summer," he said
regarding whether he would resume his coaching duties.
Hagi, nicknamed "The Maradona of the Carpathians" and considered
Romania's all-time greatest player, founded Viitorul in 2009 and
still owns the club, known for nurturing young talent in the
Black Sea state.
In August, Viitorul went top of the Romanian league for the
first time in the club's six-year history but they have fallen
away, colecting two points in their last eight games.
Viitorul's loss of form has left them in fifth spot in the
table, 17 points behind leaders FC Astra.
Hagi, who won 125 caps and went to three World Cups, played for
several top European clubs including Real Madrid and Barcelona.
He won the UEFA Cup with Galatasaray in 2000. (Reporting by
