One of the youngest players of the champion, Mihai Toma, believes that a talented young footballer must be organized to have a brilliant career. He stated that he has always led a balanced lifestyle, which helped him to be the main option for the U21 rule that the FCSB uses.
“It's nice, but playing at Steaua (No. FCSB) is a lot of pressure. You have to have a balance because at this age many talented footballers haven't made it far. Even if you play with teams like Feyenoord, after 2-3 months it is possible that no one will know about you.
I have always been a more modest time and I have always been balanced in life. The parents and the staff always help me”, said Mihai Toma, for eAD.
Mihai Toma is one of the main players used by FCSB to fulfill the U21 rule in the Superliga. The 18-year-old FCSB footballer, originally from Târgoviște, started playing football at Dani Coman's academy. He was later transferred to the academy of FCSB, passed through all the age categories, and in 2023 he reached the big team.

Although at the base he is a left winger, the density of attacking players in FCSB's squad has led the club to use him on the flanks, even as a full-back.
It is quoted by specialized websites at 500,000 euros. He is an international U19, and at this level he has 9 matches and 2 goals since his debut in 2024.
