Career
Costin Gheorghe made his debut in Liga I for Sportul Studenţesc in March 2006, in a match against FC Farul Constanţa. He played two games in Liga I, because Sportul Studenţesc was relegated at the end of the season due to financial reasons.
He established himself as a regular in the Sportul Studenţesc first team in the next season, scoring his first career goal on 26 August 2006 against FC Braşov, as The Crazy Gang won by 2 goals to 1. At the end of his second season, he played 27 matches and scored 2 goals.
On 5 September 2009 Costin Gheorghe scored a scorcher from distance in the Liga II match against FC Snagov.[1] He scored another goal from distance a few days later, in the Romanian Cup match against Dinamo II Bucureşti, won by Sportul, 5-0.[2]
