Dan Ion Potocianu (born 5 March 1974) is a Romanian former footballer who played as a defender during the 1990s and early 2000s.
Career
Potocianu started playing professionally in 1990 with his home-town team FCM Reșița. In 1993, he earned a move to FC Progresul București where he went on to make over 100 appearances before leaving for Switzerland's Servette FC in 1997. While at Servette, he had a loan spell.
Potocianu joined FC Basel's first team on loan during the second half of their 1998–99 season under head coach Guy Mathez. Potocianu played his domestic league debut for the club in the away game in the Charmilles Stadium on 13 March 1999 as Basel were defeated 1–2 by Servette. During his short loan period with the club, Potocianu played a total of 12 games for Basel without scoring a goal. 10 of these games were in the Nationalliga A and two were friendly games.
He returned to Progresul București in 2000, but injury forced him to retire in 2002 at the age of 28.
He was capped once for the Romania national team, as a second-half substitute for Anton Doboş in an 8-1 European Championships Qualifying win over Liechtenstein in Eschen on 6 September 1997.
