Playing career

Mihail played professionally in Romania for 17 years beginning his career as a right winger with his home town club Steagul Roșu Brașov, before moving onto play as a right full-back for the top flight side Sportul Studentesc. His first competitive game for Sportul Studenţesc was in Octobre 1976 against the German side FC Schalke 04 in UEFA Cup.[7] With Sportul Studentesc, he won the Balkans Cup in 1980, and was Romania vice champion in 1985 and Romania Cup finalist in 1979.

Mihail also won five caps for Romania national football team. He made his international debut on 23 March 1982 against Belgium.[8][9]

Coaching career

After his playing career ended, Mihail turned to coaching. He began his career as head coach of several top-flight teams in Romania, such as Sportul Studentesc, FC Brasov and FCM Bacau.[10]

In 1999 Mihail became Head of the Technical Department of Steaua Bucharest, the most prestigious and famous Romanian football club and former winners of the UEFA Champions League, working closely with the first team coaching staff in identifying and signing talent as well as developing a draft strategy and creating closer ties to foreign club teams. He also has overseen the direction of the club's youth development efforts.[11] Mihail played an instrumental part in Steaua Bucureşti winning the Romanian League title and Romanian Supercup in 2001.[12]

In 2001 Mihail had a short stint as head coach of the Romanian U-20 national football team, before moving to the Middle East where he has enjoyed successful spells in Syria with Al Qardaha, being named Syrian Football Association Coach of the Year in 2003, and in Saudi Arabia with Al Riyadh, saving the team from relegation in 2004 after taking over in a desperate situation.

In 2004 he returned home to complete the UEFA Pro Licence, graduating alongside Cosmin Olaroiu and Romania's former manager Razvan Lucescu amongst others.[13] He also helped to set up the youth program of the Romanian Football Federation and managed the Romanian side FC Sibiu.[14]

In 2006 he again moved to the Middle East and managed Al Jaish Damascus in Syria, Al Rayyan Beirut in Lebanon and Al Jahra in Kuwait. In between he has had a spell at the Romanian side Sportul Studentesc.[15]

In 2009 Mihail became Technical Director of the Al Wahda Abu Dhabi Youth Academy. It was under his technical leadership that the Academy won two UAE Youth League titles at U-17 and U-19 in 2010. [16] He then returned home to join the Coaching Education Department of the Romanian Football Federation.[17]

In 2011 Mihail was appointed as Technical Director of the Romanian Football Federation.[18]
