Andrei Artean signed with Universitatea Cluj after his contract with CFR Cluj ended. He expressed enthusiasm for the new project at Universitatea Cluj and is eager to make his debut. Artean mentioned that he was not wanted at CFR Cluj anymore, which led to his departure. He chose to stay in Cluj to avoid relocating his family.

Andrei Artean, a defensive midfielder with over 300 matches in the Superliga, transferred from CFR Cluj to Universitatea Cluj as a free agent. Despite joining CFR Cluj in the summer of 2024 and playing 23 matches, he did not contribute to any goals. Artean, a Romanian champion with Farul Constanța, has now signed with Universitatea Cluj and will immediately join the squad coached by Ioan Ovidiu Sabău.

Universitatea Cluj, led by coach Ioan Ovidiu Sabău, has expressed interest in acquiring the experienced midfielder Andrei Artean. Artean, who was formerly with CFR Cluj and is presently participating in their training camp in Spain, is anticipated to decide soon whether to return to Farul Constanța or to join U Cluj. Although Artean was seen as a promising fit for CFR Cluj, he did not manage to impress there, which has prompted the possibility of his transfer. The project at U Cluj is considered appealing as the team is currently at the top of the league, having ended the year 2024 as leaders with 37 points, and holds a strong potential to compete in the play-off this season.
