Career

edit

Stanev started his career playing football at his local club Maritsa. Then moving onwards to Lokomotiv Sofia, Chernomorets Burgas, CSKA Sofia and Akademik Sofia. In September 2008 he signed with Nigerian club Heartland F.C.,[1] Stanev featured in the second half of their pre-season friendly against Dolphins FC at the Sam Okwaraji Memorial Stadium in Orlu.

Heartland won 1-0 through an 87th-minute goal scored by Ikechukwu Ibeneghu, but Stanov was the cynosure of all eyes, clearly different from the other 21 players on the pitch because of his skin colour.

His nickname is "The Queen".[2]
