Career
[edit]Iulian started his adult football career in 1992 with the Moldovan club "Agro" in Chișinău. In 1994, he moved to another capital club, "Constructorul." From 2001 to 2006, he played for FC Nistru Otaci. In 2005, he played on loan for the Kazakh club "Aktobe."
In 2006, he moved to Lithuania and joined Vilnius-based "Žalgiris" (B). During his time with the Lithuanian club, he went on loan twice, first playing for the Belarusian club FC Savit Mogilev in 2008 and then for the Lithuanian club FK Tauras Tauragė in 2009. After his contract with Žalgiris ended, he moved to Uzbekistan and played for "Nasaf."

Initially, he was suspended for two years, but the suspension was later reduced to 13 months.
