[edit] Club career

Sepsi made his professional debut with lowly Gaz Metan Mediaş, after which he emigrated to France, representing French first division side Stade Rennais FC. He was brought in to the club by then Rennes coach, László Bölöni.

Sepsi didn't feature in any league matches in the 2005-06 season, only being fielded in a couple of French Cup contests. Following the departure of Bölöni in the summer of 2006, he returned to Romania, joining Gloria Bistriţa.

On January 12, 2008, Sepsi signed a five-and-a-half-year contract with Portuguese first division's S.L. Benfica, for an undisclosed fee (newspapers reported that it could have been something between 1.8 and 2.5 M€). After the season's end, he was loaned to La Liga outfit Racing de Santander, for 2008–09. Sepsi made his competitive debut with Racing on August 31, 2008, in a 1-1 home match against Sevilla FC.^[1]

[edit] International career

Sepsi made his full international debut for Romania on March 26, 2008, in a 3-0 rout of Russia in Bucharest, in a friendly game.
