Club career

Daniliuc began his youth career with Admira Wacker Mödling, before moving to Rapid Wien in 2010. In 2011, he joined the youth academy of Spanish club Real Madrid, where he won a youth league title. His international transfer was one of the cases which resulted in the transfer ban imposed on Real Madrid by FIFA in 2016.[2] After being bullied by his colleagues in Spain, he moved to Germany in 2014 on the advice of Bayern defender and fellow countryman David Alaba, who Daniliuc's father had met. He first joined the DFI Bad Aibling youth team,[3] before joining the Bayern Munich youth academy in January 2015.[4] In October 2018, Daniliuc was included in The Guardian's "Next Generation 2018", which listed 60 of most talented footballers born in 2001.[5]

Daniliuc made his professional debut for Bayern Munich II in the 3. Liga on 26 July 2019, starting in the home match against KFC Uerdingen.[6]

International career

Daniliuc began his international youth career with the under-15 team of Austria in October 2015 against Montenegro.[7] He advanced through the under-16 and under-17 teams in 2016 and 2017.[8][9] On 19 November 2018, he made his under-18 debut in a friendly match against the Czech Republic, which finished as a 0–1 loss.[10][11]

Personal life

Daniliuc was born in Vienna to Romanian parents from Suceava, who had fled their home country to Austria before the start of the Romanian Revolution.[4][12] His older twin brothers, Daniel-Edward and Manuel-Raphael, are also footballers.[13]
