About the player
He came through at CSMS Iași, spending the 2011/12 season on loan at Corvinul Hunedoara in Liga III, and won the second-tier championship with Iași twice, in 2011/12 and 2013/14, before amassing 152 league appearances and seven goals for the club.
In December 2016 he left Romania for Olimpija Ljubljana, then moved on to Maribor in February 2018, where he won the Slovenian title in 2018/19 during a spell that brought 77 league appearances and three goals.
His first return to Romania, in August 2021, did not go smoothly. He signed for FCSB as a free agent but left before the month was out, after a dispute with the club's owner, having made just five league appearances without scoring. He joined Universitatea Craiova, also as a free agent, and stayed three seasons, playing 106 league matches and scoring 16 goals.
Crețu won seven caps for Romania between 2020 and 2022, making his debut against Northern Ireland in the Nations League on 4 September 2020.
