Adrian Marius Stoian (born 11 February 1991) is a Romanian professional footballer who plays for Italian side Crotone as a midfielder. He is noted for his versatility.
Stoian starded his career at Gheorghe Popescu's football school, which he joined in 2006.
In 2008, he joined Serie A team A.S. Roma. He made his Serie A debut on 21 March 2009 against Juventus F.C. as a substitute for Mirko Vučinić in the last minutes of the game.
Stoian spent the 2010–11 season on loan at Pescara, but he didn't manage to impress due to an injury that sidelined him for good part of the year.
On 5 August 2011 he joined A.S. Bari on a season long loan deal that bring teammates Alessandro Crescenzi and Simone Sini to the team too. In order to formalized the deal, Stoian also signed a new 3-year contract with €86,700 annual gross wage.
In December, Stoian had a great game against Brescia, when he scored two goals in a 3–1 victory. On 14 January 2012, he closed the scoring in the 2–0 victory against A.S. Varese. On 11 March, Stoian brought his team the victory, with a last minute goal against Reggina Calcio. He finished an impressive 2011–12 season scoring five goals from 31 games for Bari.
On 22 June 2012, A.S. Bari activated a buy-out clause in his contract for €300K in co-ownership deal and Stoian signed for them. A week later, Roma bought him back from Bari for a fee of €1 million.
