- Began with hometown club FC Corvinul Hunedoara; moved to FC Rapid Bucuresti, winning the Romanian Cup in his debut campaign and a national title the following year.
- Joined AFC Ajax but struggled to dislodge Fred Grim; returned on loan to Romania and helped FC Dinamo 1948 Bucuresti to the title before returning for a successful spell in Amsterdam, winning the Eredivisie in 2004 and making 14 UEFA Champions League appearances.
- Brief spell at ACF Fiorentina prior to rejoining Dinamo Bucuresti and winning a third Romanian championship in 2007.
- First international cap in September 1998 but unused substitute at UEFA EURO 2000™ (deputy to Bogdan Stelea), so yet to make major tournament debut.
- Just six goals conceded in eleven UEFA EURO 2008™ qualifiers.

Updates:
- Wednesday 18 June 2008
One of the stars of the tournament for Romania; made a number of crucial saves against Italy and his stop from Robin van Persie against the Netherlands was world class.
- Tuesday 17 June 2008
The FC Steaua Bucure?ti goalkeeper will be hoping to maintain his fine form in the first two games and his knowledge of Dutch football from his time at AFC Ajax will be crucial in settling the reshuffled defence in front of him.
- Sunday 15 June 2008
Is a hero with the Tricolorii fans who showed their appreciation at Saturday's open training session. His performances against France and Italy have put the former AFC Ajax and ACF Fiorentina goalkeeper back on the radar.
- Saturday 14 June 2008
An excellent performance. Made a series of impressive saves including a first half double block from Luca Toni which kept Romania level at half-time.
- Tuesday 10 June 2008
'The Cat' was in a lethargic mood for Romania's first open training day. Happy to exchange banter with the fans and took an age to get up after saving shots.
- Monday 09 June 2008
Smothered at Florent Malouda's feet in the first half but apart from a close call just before the break when he saved from one of his own defenders, it was a comfortable evening for 'The Cat'.
- Sunday 08 June 2008
One of two players who smoke in this Romania side – guess the other one – but the goalkeeper had a comfortable evening in this small-sided game, so comfortable he could have been sitting back smoking a cigar.
