Impressive career
The 32-year-old midfield player has been bought from Romanian second division team FC Extensiv Craiova on a one-and-a-half-year contract. During an impressive career, Cristescu spent eleven years with FC Universitatea Craiova in two spells and also had a brief period with Dynamo Berlin in Germany.
