Andrei Daniel Vlad (Romanian pronunciation: [anˈdrej daniˈel ˈvlad]; born 15 April 1999) is a Romanian professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Liga I club FCSB.
Club career
[edit]Early career / Universitatea Craiova
[edit]Vlad practiced youth football for his hometown club CSȘ Târgoviște, before joining the academy of Universitatea Craiova in 2015.[1] He made his professional debut for the latter on 7 May 2017, aged 18, playing the full 90 minutes in a 0–1 Liga I defeat to eventual champions Viitorul Constanța.[1][2]
FCSB
[edit]On 9 July 2017, fellow Liga I team FCSB announced the signing of Vlad on a six-year contract with a €30 million buyout clause.[3][4][5] Vlad made his FCSB debut on 9 September 2017, also a 0–1 loss to Viitorul Constanța.[6] His first European appearance came on 23 November that year, in a 0–2 away loss to Viktoria Plzeň in the group stage of the UEFA Europa League.[7]
On 15 February 2018, after first-choice goalkeeper Florin Niță moved to Sparta Prague, Vlad started in a 1–0 home win over Lazio in the Europa League round of 32.[8] He then became an understudy to Cristian Bălgrădean, who was signed a few days prior to the second leg against Lazio.
Vlad started to appear frequently for the Roș-albaștrii in the 2019–20 season, amassing 26 appearances in all competitions. Following a series of unconvincing performances, he lost his starter status to Ștefan Târnovanu in March 2022.[9]
International career
[edit]Vlad made his debut for the Romania national team in a friendly against Georgia on 2 June 2021, playing the full 90 minutes in the 1–2 home loss.[10]
