Ștefan Adrian Mardare (born 3 December 1987) is a Romanian former footballer who played as a centre-back for teams such as FCM Bacău, FC Vaslui, Rapid București or Unirea Alba Iulia, among others.

He graduated from the FCM Bacău Academy. Then he made his debut for the senior team against Rapid București at 15 years of age. Leaving Bacău after relegation, he signed for F.C. Vaslui, where he became a first team regular.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Ștefan Mardare” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Ștefan, Mardare and Romanian provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 3, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q397138. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1987, 2007 and 2013.

Critical limits

Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
