Mihai Mircea Neșu (nickname: "Bișonul", "The Bichon"; born 19 February 1983) is a Romanian former football player who played most of his career for Steaua București. His career came to an end when he suffered a severe neck injury, which left him paralyzed. He officially ended his career in 2012, as he mainly wanted to focus on his rehabilitation.

Club career

Neșu completed a transfer deal with FC Utrecht which saw him move to the club on 27 August 2008. He replaced Erik Pieters who left for PSV in the summer.[1]

On 10 May 2011 Neșu suffered a bad injury during a training session with his team. Nesu collided with his team mate Alje Schut, during training and broke his cervical vertebrae.[2] The doctors were unsure how long it would take to recover.[3] In June 2012 his contract with Utrecht expired and Neșu officially ended his career in professional football.[citation needed]
