Career[edit]

Claudiu Boaru was born on 10 April 1977 in Mediaș, Romania, playing only for teams from his town, firstly at Sparta at junior level and for a short period at the seniors.[1][2] In 1998 he went to play for Gaz Metan in Divizia B, helping the team earn promotion to Divizia A after 51 years of absence by scoring 9 goals in the 1999–2000 season, under the guidance of coach Jean Gavrilă.[1][3][4][5] He made his first league debut on 5 August 2000 in a 3–0 home victory against Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț, gaining a total of 21 appearances without scoring by the end of the season as the team finished on the 16th place, relegating back to the second league.[1][3] Boaru stayed with the club in Divizia B for the following seven seasons, helping it gain another promotion in the 2007–08 season, this time with coach Cristian Pustai, being the team's top-goalscorer with a personal record of 20 goals, forming a successful trio in the offence with Ciprian Prodan and Eric de Oliveira.[1][3][6][7] In the following season, which would be the last of his career, Boaru scored a goal and missed a penalty in the first round of the season in a 2–2 with Oțelul Galați, then he scored another goal in a 5–1 win over Politehnica Timișoara and his last goal in a 1–0 victory against Politehnica Iași, making his last first league appearance on 30 May 2009 in a 2–0 away loss with Farul Constanța, having a total 315 games played with 108 goals scored in all the competitions for Gaz Metan of which 50 games with three goals are in the first league.[1][8][9][10][11][12]

After he retired from playing, Boaru became a football coach, working as an assistant for Gaz Metan's satellite team from 2010 until 2012 when he became the sports director of the club.[8][13][14][15]
