Cristian Vrînceanu (born 15 April 1956), commonly known as Chris Vranceanu, is a Romanian former football striker.[3][4] He was part of Romania's national team in a tournament in New York City, but did not play in any game as he ran away from the team's cantonment, in order to escape from Nicolae Ceaușescu's Communist regime.[5]
After finishing his soccer career in the United States, he moved to Brazil, where he still resides today.[5]
