Farul Constanța shareholder Ciprian Marica stated that goalkeeper Rafael Munteanu could be sold abroad for a significant European-level fee. Marica expressed a preference for selling the twenty-year-old internationally rather than strengthening domestic SuperLiga rivals, according to Digi Sport.

Munteanu has started all fourteen SuperLiga matches this season. He has conceded twenty-one goals and kept three clean sheets during the 2026/2027 campaign, establishing himself as Farul's first-choice goalkeeper. Transfermarkt values him at 500,000 euros.

In round 14 of the SuperLiga, Munteanu made a decisive save against Cestic in stoppage time during Farul's 2-1 away victory over FC Voluntari.

Munteanu is a Romania U21 international. He previously represented his country at U16, U17, U18, U19 and U20 levels.

Unconfirmed reports earlier in the year linked Munteanu with interest from FCSB and Universitatea Craiova, but he remained at Farul.

Farul's last major outgoing transfer was Iustin Doicaru to Rizespor for 1.5 million euros.
