Florin Bratu is a Romanian professional football manager and former player who joined Rapid București in 1992 after impressing at trials with his speed. He was loaned to Divizia B club Tractorul Brașov in 2000, scoring eight goals in 27 league games during his only season there before returning to make his Divizia A debut for Rapid on 5 August 2001.
Bratu won the 2001–02 Cupa României as a starter in the final against Dinamo and opened the scoring in the 2002 Supercupa României victory over the same opponent. During that campaign, coach Mircea Rednic deployed him in an offensive partnership with Daniel Niculae, contributing directly to both trophies secured within consecutive seasons at Rapid.
Former LPF president Dumitru Dragomir stated that coach Daniel Pancu's tenure at Rapid București is effectively over following a public conflict involving the playing time of Andrei Șucu and subsequent comments directed at the player's mother.
