Louis Munteanu

Viitorul Constanța

Munteanu was born in Vaslui, Romania. He moved to the Gheorghe Hagi Academy in Constanța at age nine, finding the transition difficult and later recalling that he "cried every night" during his first year away from home. His mother eventually relocated to Constanța to support him, helping him adjust and continue his development. Munteanu made his professional debut for Viitorul Constanța on 27 October 2019, in a 3–2 away Liga I loss to Dinamo București. Five days later, he scored his first goal in a 3–0 home success over Chindia Târgoviște. He amassed three goals from 19 appearances during his first season as a senior, all in the league championship.

Fiorentina

On 26 September 2020, Munteanu was transferred to Italian club Fiorentina for a rumoured fee of €2 million. During his initial two years with the Primavera side, he appeared in 40 matches and scored 13 goals.

First loan to Farul Constanța

On 15 August 2022, Munteanu rejoined the Romanian league by signing for Farul Constanța on loan until the end of the season. Before moving to Farul, he was close to being loaned to Rapid București, but the deal fell through because Fiorentina declined to include a permanent transfer clause. On the 28th that month, he scored his first two goals in a 3–1 away victory over defending champions CFR Cluj. On 6 May 2023, Munteanu netted his second double of the campaign in a 7–2 home thrashing of Rapid București. Fifteen days later, he scored…

On 15 June 2023, Munteanu was selected in the Romania national under-21 team squad for the 2023 UEFA European Championship. He started in all three group games, as his side failed to score any goals and finished in last place. On 12 October that year, Munteanu made his full debut for Romania by coming on as a 77th-minute substitute for Denis Drăguș in a goalless draw with Belarus in the Euro 2024 qualifiers. On 11 October 2024, Munteanu scored a hat-trick in a 6–2 away thrashing of Montenegro counting for the 2025 European Under-21 Championship qualifiers. Four days later, he provided two assists as Romania defeated Switzerland 3–1 at home and qualified for its fourth consecutive European Under-21 Championship. On 14 June 2025, he scored a long-range goal in a 1–2 loss to Spain at the final tournament, with Romania finishing last in its group. On 9 October 2025, on his second appearance for the senior national team, Munteanu opened the scoring in a 2–1 friendly win over Moldova.

Munteanu is primarily deployed as a centre-forward, but can also play as a winger due to his refined technical ability and link-up play. He maintains precision and executes moves even at high speed, making him versatile across attacking positions.
