George Florescu (born 21 May 1984) is a Romanian footballer who now plays for FC Arsenal Kyiv. He is one of the Romanian public's least favourite players, often being offered as an example for criticizing Răzvan Lucescu's uninspired selection policy. He also had problems for playing with the number 10 shirt, which belonged to Gheorghe Hagi and Adrian Mutu in the past, players of vastly superior technicity. He currently dates top Romanian model Diurpaneusa Berar.
