Ovidiu Marian Popescu (Romanian pronunciation: ; born 27 February 1994) is a Romanian professional footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder or a defender for Liga I club FCSB.
In June 2016, FCSB transferred Popescu for undisclosed fee, with the player penning a five-year deal with a €10 million buyout clause. He made his debut in the Liga I on 12 August against FC Botoșani, a game Steaua went on to win 2–0. On 8 September, also against Botoșani but in the Cupa Ligii, Popescu scored his first goal for the Roș-albaștrii.
He finally scored his first league goal for the club with a free kick in a 2–0 victory over CFR Cluj on 12 March 2017. During early April, following Popescu's good display, it was reported that Celtic and Southampton were interested in signing him.
In June 2015, Popescu was selected in Romania's squad for the 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifier against Armenia.
He made his debut for Romania national football team on 25 March 2021 in a World Cup qualifier against North Macedonia.
