Marian Savu (born October 11, 1972 in Pietroşani , Teleorman County ) is a former Romanian football player . The striker played a total of 257 games in the Romanian Divizia A , the Ukrainian Premjer-Liha and the Hungarian Nemzeti Bajnokság . In the 1999/2000 season he was Romania's top scorer.

Career

Savu came in 1989 in the first team squad of CSM Flacăra Moreni , which at that time in the highest Romanian football league, the Divizia A , played. There he was not used in his first year and could therefore not prevent relegation at the end of the season . After the season he moved to the Romanian top club Dinamo Bucharest .

With the reigning champions Savu could not prevail in the 1990/91 season and only came on six missions. He was then loaned to his former club, who in Divizia B played. Dinamo brought him back during the winter break of 1992/93 . Savu made his breakthrough in the 1993/94 season when he scored twelve goals and thus secured his club qualification for the UEFA Cup . Nevertheless, he was loaned again at the beginning of the following season - this time to the league rivals FC Brașov . After only six months he returned to Dinamo and again took third place with his team behind Steaua Bucharest and FC Universitatea Craiova .

At the beginning of 1996 Savu left Dinamo and moved to local rivals Rapid Bucharest . After the end of the season he joined the FC Național Bucharest . In the 1996/97 season he was one of the permanent staff of his new club. He secured the runner-up with the club and moved to the cup final , where he was not used. In the first half of the 1997/98 season he only made five appearances and was loaned to local rivals Sportul Studențesc for the rest of the season . Sportul rose from Divizia A at the end of the season.

After his return to FC Național, Savu experienced the most successful years of his career as a striker . Although his club was only able to place itself in the midfield of the league, he came in the 1998/99 season on 19 goals and was able to surpass this value in the following season with 20 goals, which earned him the top scorer's crown. However, Savu benefited this season from the fact that his biggest rival Adrian Mutu moved abroad during the winter break and could not improve his goal account of 18 in the second half of the season.

Through this success, foreign clubs became aware of Savu, so that in 2000 the Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk signed him. There he could not assert himself and left the club after six months for league rivals Metalurh Donetsk , where he was also rarely used. He returned to FC Național in 2001, but could no longer build on his previous achievements. He was runner- up again , but after only one season he moved to AEL Limassol in Cyprus.

Savu only stayed in Cyprus for a year and joined the Hungarian first division club Videoton FC in 2003 . After one season he returned for a third time to FC Național, but was rarely able to prove his qualities. In 2006 he moved to Petrolul Ploieşti in Liga II , where he ended his career a year later.
