Club career
Born in Satu Mare, Prodan came to prominence with country giants FC Steaua București, having signed in late 1992 from hometown side FC Olimpia Satu Mare. With the capital club he won five consecutive Liga I titles, almost always as an undisputed starter, and his debut in the league came on 8 November in a 3–1 win at FC Farul Constanța, aged 20.[1]
In January 1997, Prodan moved to Spain with Atlético Madrid.[2] He scored four La Liga goals in only half-a-season (17 matches), and appeared in the same number of games in the following.[1]
In the 1998 summer, Prodan joined Rangers for £2.2 million, but made no first-team appearances in two-and-a-half years in Scotland due to a serious knee injury, which he sustained whilst with the Colchoneros.[3][4] Rangers' doctor, Stewart Hillis, later revealed that no medical had been conducted, and the transfer was rushed to completion on the strength of falsified documents;[5] the Glasgow club threatened to sue Atlético Madrid, but backed down and released the player in January 2001.[6]
During the last five years of his career – Rangers included – Prodan only appeared in 33 matches combined while representing four teams, retiring at the age of 31 with FC Progresul București.
International career
Prodan won 54 caps for Romania between 1993 and 2001,[7] and was in the squad for the 1994 FIFA World Cup (all complete matches for the quarter-finalists[8]) and UEFA Euro 1996. His only goal arrived on 12 November 1994, as he contributed to a 3–2 win in Bucharest against Slovakia for the latter competition's qualifiers.[9]
Personal life
Prodan's younger brother, Ciprian, was also a footballer.[10] On 16 November 2016, Daniel died of a heart attack at the age of 44.[11][12]
