Stanislav Manolev (Bulgarian: Станислав Манолев; (born 16 December 1985) is a Bulgarian footballer who plays for Russian Premier League side Kuban Krasnodar and the Bulgaria national football team, as a right back.

Club career

Pirin 1922

Manolev started to play football for Pirin 1922.

Litex Lovech

In early 2005 he moved to Litex. Manolev won The National Cup in 2008 with Litex. In the final on 21 May 2008 against Cherno More Varna, Manolev scored the only goal after 53 minutes. Next year, Litex won the cup again. The event took place on 26 May 2009.

PSV Eindhoven

On 25 July 2009, Manolev signed a 3+2 years contract with the Dutch club PSV Eindhoven,[2] to fend competitions from Aston Villa. On 6 August 2009, Manolev made his official debut for PSV Eindhoven. He was selected as a starter against Bulgarian club Cherno More in the UEFA Europa League 3rd qualification round. Unluckily for him he was sent off for a second bookable offense in the 44th minute of the game, but his team went on to repeat its 1–0 win from the first leg.[3]

On 9 August 2009, Manolev made his full debut for PSV Eindhoven in the Eredivisie. He played 69 minutes before being substituted for Jan Kromkamp, assisting Balázs Dzsudzsák's equalizing goal and earning himself a booking.[4] On 16 August 2009, Manolev played the full 90 minutes of PSV's 4–3 home win against AFC Ajax and assisted Otman Bakkal's decisive goal in the 75th minute of the game.[5] On 23 August 2009, Manolev had another fine display, assisting two PSV goals in the 3–1 home win against NAC Breda.[6] On 12 September 2009, he scored his first goal in the 3–0 home win against Roda JC. On 28 October 2009, Manolev scored his second goal for PSV against Roda JC for a match from the KNVB Cup. On 14 April 2010, Manolev scored his second league goal in the 2–2 draw with Heerenveen.

In the 2011-12 season, Manolev signed a new contract with PSV until 2014.[7] In the summer transfer window in 2012, Manolev was linked around Europe, with Stuttgart[8] and Sporting Lisbon.[9]

Subsequently his performance at PSV led to him being branded as "the worst right back in Europe" by RTL pundits, such as René van der Gijp, having become his outspoken critics since his arrival.[10][11] Despite this, Manolev refused to bow down to the careless criticism he received, being quoted as saying: "I do not look at it and I do not make me worry about," said Manolev then. "This man (ed. Van der Gijp) is paid to give his opinion, fine. I look good at the Bulgarian television."[12]

Upon his loan spell ended from Fulham, having lost a first team place to Santiago Arias and Joshua Brenet.[13] PSV would allow Manolev to leave the club on free transfer,[14] as well leaving on cheap basis.[15] After a failed move in the summer transfer window, Manolev was then sent to the reserve team and went on to make ten appearance, scoring once.[16]

In the January transfer window, Manolev left the club by mutual consent, just six month left to his contract after the club have no interests to extend his contract.[17][18]

Fulham (loan)

Manolev signed for Premier League side Fulham on loan until the end of the season on 31 January 2013.[19] After his move to Fulham, Manager Martin Jol backed Manolev quoting: "If you go on Google and look at games from less than four weeks ago he has been the man of the match."[11]

On 9 February 2013, Manolev made his debut in a 0-0 draw against Norwich City. In the 1-0 loss against Arsenal on 20 April 2013, Manolev was fouled by Olivier Giroud, who later got sent-off in the 85th minute.[20] At the end of the season, Manolev made five league appearance and returned to PSV despite hopes of joining Fulham on a permanent basis.[21] After loan spell finished, Manolev says he expressed "delighted to be given a chance to play for Fulham".[22]

Kuban Krasnodar

The assist came from fellow Bulgarian team-mate Ivelin Popov.

Dynamo Moscow

On the 18th of June 2014 Manolev signed a contract with Dynamo Moscow as a free agent.[26]

International career

Manolev started his career for the Bulgarian national football team during the World Cup 2010 qualifiers. In August 2008, the Bulgarian national coach Plamen Markov called Stanislav in Bulgaria national football team in a match against Bosnia and Herzegovina national football team.
