Plamen Tsvetanov Getov (Bulgarian: Пламен Цветанов Гетов; born 4 March 1959) is a Bulgarian retired footballer who played as either an attacking midfielder or a striker.
A skillful free-kick taker, he scored numerous goals from different positions, in a career which spanned almost 20 years. Getov represented Bulgaria at the 1986 World Cup.
Football career
A native of Pleven, Getov played as a youth for PFC Spartak Varna, then represented professionally PFC Spartak Pleven (two spells), FC Vatev Beloslav, PFC CSKA Sofia (August–December 1988), F.C. Etar, PFC Levski Sofia, PFC Shumen and PFC Cherno More Varna, also having a spell abroad in Portugal with Portimonense S.C. (January 1989 to 1991, being allowed to leave the country at age 30).[1]
He won the top Bulgarian league twice: with CSKA Sofia in 1989 and with Levski Sofia in 1993. Proclaimed the best player of the 1992–93 season, he added the league to the top scorer's crown, scoring 26 goals at 34 years of age – he had already won that award in 1985, with 26 for Pleven.
Getov retired with his first club at 39, amassing totals of 286 games and 165 goals in the country's top division, of which 108 were for Spartak Pleven. For the Bulgarian national team he gained 25 caps and netted four times, playing all four matches at the 1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico and scoring against South Korea in a 1–1 group stage draw.[2]
