Ion Lică Panait (5 March 1924 – 18 August 1981) was a Romanian footballer who played as a right back.^[2]^[1]

International career

Ion Panait played one game at international level for Romania, in a 1958 World Cup qualification match against Yugoslavia which ended with a 2–0 loss.^[4]^[5]

^ The Divizia A 1940–41 was the last season before World War II and the Divizia A 1946–47 was the first one after, so the appearances and goals scored during this period for Carmen București are not official with the exception of the 1945–46 regional championship.^[2]^[3]
^ The 1957 championship called Cupa Primăverii is unofficial, so the appearances at that competition for Jiul Petroșani are not official.^[2]
