Andrei Ivan (born 4 January 1997 in Moreni) is a Romanian footballer who plays for Universitatea Craiova as a striker.
He is considered one of the brightest young talents of the Romanian football and attracted interest from big clubs. FC Barcelona are currently scouting the player, and his club negotiated with Steaua București, Espanyol and Stuttgart rejecting offers between 3 and 4 million Euros.[1]
