Leonard Andrei Manole (born 19 April 1993) is a Romanian footballer.[2] He made his Liga I debut on 16 September 2013 for Vaslui, in a match against Poli Timişoara.
Manole began his professional career with his home club Argeş Piteşti. He made his debut for Argeş Piteşti on 9 October 2010 as a second-half substitute for Ionuţ Murineanu against Arieşul Turda.[3]
Although he was supposed to sign a four–year contract with Astra Giurgiu following Argeş Piteşti's disaffiliation,[4] he ended up signing with Vaslui.[2] He made his debut in a 1–0 home victory against Poli Timişoara, coming in as a substitute for Vaslui captain Lucian Sânmărtean. He was handed the number 10 jersey, left vacant following the departure of Nicolae Stanciu.[5]
While involved with the Romania national under-19 football team, Manole photographed himself with controversial Serbian figure Ratko Butorović. As a result, he was banned from representing Romania for six months.[6]
