At the age of 16, he was purchased by FC Academia UTM Chişinău, where he played five years.[2]

I want to thank all the teammates and staff. Good luck!". On 16 June he signed with Sheriff Tiraspol. His first goal for Sheriff Tiraspol was in the Moldovan Super Cup match against his previous club, Zimbru Chișinău. Unfortunately, his team lost with penalty kicks.
