Club career

Lazăr played at youth level for CSȘ Craiova, a club from his hometown specialized in this sector. Despite the fact that most of local players eventually reached the Craiova's strongest team at that time, FC Universitatea Craiova, he made a big jump to one of the best Romanian football clubs, Dinamo București, for which he made his debut at only 16 years old in a match against Universitatea Cluj.

Lazăr moved back to Bihor Oradea for the last part of his career, being a highly appreciated player by supporters, especially for his style of playing, seriousness and loyalty to the club, also being the captain of the team.

At 35 years old, also due to bankruptcy of FC Bihor, Lazăr left the team, but continued to play for Liga IV teams from Bihor County such as: FC Hidișelu de Sus, CS Diosig or CSC Sânmartin, winning the league with the first two and being on the 1st place with CSC Sânmartin, also, before he transferred to Crișul Chișineu Criș, in January 2018.
