International career

Mircea Petescu played two games for Romania, making on 27 October 1968 under coach Angelo Niculescu in a 3–0 loss against Portugal at the 1970 World Cup qualifiers.[1][9] His second game was a friendly which ended 0–0 against England.[1] He also played three games for Romania's Olympic team at the 1964 Summer Olympics, helping the team finish in the 5th place.[10]

Managerial career

After years of preparation, Petescu and his wife defected while on a state-approved vacation to the Netherlands.[11] There he started a coaching career and became known for promoting youngsters in the teams he coached. He coached Louis van Gaal at Telstar and Sparta and discovered Danny Blind amongst many other players.[4][12]

Sports agent career

After he ended his career as a football player and manager, Petescu became a sports agent.[7][8] After the 1989 Romanian Revolution, Petescu made the first important transfer for the Romanian football, Gheorghe Hagi's move from Steaua București to Real Madrid for 4 million $.[7][8] He also worked at the transfers of Gheorghe Popescu to PSV Eindhoven, Ioan Sabău to Feyenoord and Dorinel Munteanu to Cercle Brugge.[7][8]
