Sorin Ghionea, (born May 11, 1979 in Galaţi), is a Romanian football player, who plays for Steaua Bucharest as fullback, making together with Dorin Goian one of the strongest central defensive in Europe.[citation needed]

[edit] Club career

Ghionea made his debut as a player for Dunărea Galaţi during the 1997-98 season. Just one year later, he joined Oţelul Galaţi to play in Liga I for the very first time.

In 2002, Ghionea is bought by Steaua Bucharest but only plays six games during the entire 2002-03 season and, as a result, is loaned back to Oţelul Galaţi for a season.

Since 2005, the year when he returned to Steaua, Ghionea is one the first team players.

[edit] International career

As of September 6, 2006, Ghionea won six caps for Romania.
