Dan Ion Potocianu (born 5 March 1974 in Reșița) 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 Bucureşti 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 at FC Basel during the 1998-99 season and he returned to Progresul București in 2000. Injury forced him to retire in 2002 at the age of 28.
He was capped once for the Romanian 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.
