Juventus striker Adrian Mutu wants to buy his former Romanian club Arges Pitesti.
"I'm ready to offer 1.5 million euros in order to have 51 percent of Fotbal Club Arges Pitesti shares," local sports daily Pro Sport quoted Mutu as saying on Friday.
" A final decision will be taken next week," added the player, who started with Pitesti before moving to Dinamo Bucharest in 1999.
Mutu said his father Spiridon, the city mayor Tudor Pendiuc and local businessman Constantin Stroe would run the club.
Arges Pitesti owe more than 1 million euros ($1.18 million) to the state. Local tax authorities tried, without success, to sell some of the club's assets last month.
