The 34-year-old, a father of three who now plays for French side AC Ajaccio,
says he was moved by the plight of the newborn boy, weighing just 5lbs,
who was found wedged in the pipe that he and his wife were willing to adopt the child.
He said he had discussed the plan with his wife
Consuelo, and they would go ahead,
if a legal agreement could be reached. Romania is not currently on the list of 17 countries
whose citizens can adopt from China.
Mutu said: 'I couldn't figure out how to carry on living, how to eat my breakfast
when I saw this story on TV. He's a special child. When I saw the baby
I said '
I must adopt him, he has been sent to me by God.'
'Just look at this poor little fellow. He made such a strong impression on me.
I told my wife we have to help him, we have to do everything we can.
'I never thought I would adopt a baby,
I had no plan concerning that, but I just know: I have to help this one.'
