Early years and Bayern Munich
Daniliuc began his youth career with Admira Wacker Mödling, before moving to Rapid Wien in 2010. The following year, he joined the junior academy of Spanish club Real Madrid, where he won a youth league title. His international transfer was one of the cases which resulted in the transfer ban imposed on Real Madrid by FIFA in 2016.[3]
After being bullied by his colleagues in Spain, Daniliuc moved to Germany in 2014 on the advice of Bayern Munich defender and fellow countryman David Alaba, who Daniliuc's father had met. He first entered the DFI Bad Aibling youth team,[4] before joining the Bayern Munich youth academy in January 2015.[5] In October 2018, Daniliuc was included in The Guardian's "Next Generation 2018", which listed the 60 most talented footballers born in 2001.[6] He made his professional debut for Bayern Munich II in the 3. Liga on 26 July 2019, starting in a home match with KFC Uerdingen.[7]

Daniliuc scored his first senior goal in a 2–1 victory over Rennes at the Roazhon Park, on 26 February 2021.
Salernitana
On 29 August 2022, Daniliuc signed a four-year contract with Salernitana in Italy.[9]
On 31 January 2024, Daniliuc joined Austrian Bundesliga club Red Bull Salzburg on loan for the remainder of the season.[10]
Daniliuc began his international youth career with the under-15 team of Austria in October 2015 against Montenegro.[11] He advanced through the under-16 and under-17 teams in 2016 and 2017.[12][13] On 19 November 2018, he made his under-18 debut in a friendly match against the Czech Republic, which finished in a 1–0 loss.[14][15]
Daniliuc was born in Vienna, Austria, to Romanian parents from Suceava who fled their home country before the fall of Communism.[5][16] His older twin brothers, Daniel and Manuel, are also footballers.[17]
