About the player
Emil Kostadinov was a key member of the Bulgaria side that reached the semi-finals of the 1994 World Cup. He played for his country 70 times between 1988 and 1998 and scored more than 25 goals for it.
His club career began at CSKA Sofia, where he played from 1985 to 1990. He then moved to FC Porto and stayed four years, scoring 43 goals in 114 games. That spell was the longest of his career. Every other club after it kept him for a year or less.
Those stops took him across Europe and beyond. He played for Deportivo La Coruña in 1994, Bayern Munich in 1995–1996 and Fenerbahçe in 1996–1997. In 1997 he crossed the Atlantic to UANL Tigres in Mexico. In 1998 he went back to CSKA Sofia, and later that year he joined 1. FSV Mainz 05, where he played until 1999.
He retired on 7 November 1999. Kostadinov has since returned to Bulgarian football in an administrative role. Since 2024 he has been sports director at PFC CSKA 1948 Sofia.
