Brazilian Forward Luan Leaves Romanian Club Without Notice Before Joining Israeli Team

Luan Campus, a Brazilian forward who recently scored the winning goal for Hapoel Ramat Gan in their Toto Cup victory over Hapoel Petah Tikva, has a peculiar transfer story. Previously playing for Romanian club U Cluj, Luan left the team abruptly without notifying the club's management. Romanian media reported that he was removed from the squad due to unpaid wages, which led to his move to Hapoel Ramat Gan. Despite his departure, U Cluj has yet to officially announce his exit, and he remains registered with the Romanian Football Federation.

This is not the first time Luan has left a club under unusual circumstances. In late 2025, Turkish media reported that he disappeared from Sivasspor's training camp and informed the club through his agent that he would not return, without any formal notification to the management. During his stint at U Cluj, Luan made 10 appearances, scoring one goal and providing two assists. He developed in Palmeiras' academy and has played professionally in Portugal, Turkey, and Romania before moving to Israel.
