Ricardo Florin Grigore (born 7 April 1999) is a Romanian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back.
Born in Bucharest, Grigore joined the academy of Dinamo București at age eight. On 3 April 2018, shortly before turning 19, he made his professional debut in a 1–0 Liga I away victory over Botoșani. [1]
On 15 July 2022, following Dinamo București's relegation to the Liga II, FC U Craiova announced the signing of Grigore on a three-year contract, [2] although it was later revealed to be a loan. On 9 March 2023, after terminating his deal with FC U Craiova, he signed a contract until the end of the season with fellow Liga I team Petrolul Ploiești. [3]
Grigore returned to Dinamo for the 2023–24 season, but after only seven games played, he was released at the end of the year. [4] On 7 August 2024, he signed a one-year deal with Spanish Segunda División side CD Eldense. [5] Grigore was released from his Eldense contract on 3 February 2025. [6]
In June 2021, Grigore was selected by manager Mirel Rădoi in Romania's squad for the postponed 2020 Summer Olympics. [7]
