Career

Burdujan was born in Piatra Neamț. He started his career at Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț in 2002. In 2004, he transferred to FC Rapid București but failed to play regularly in the first eleven. His best spell at Rapid was during the first season, when he managed to score eight goals. He was injured for most of the 2006–07 season.

In the summer of 2008, Burdujan left Rapid for SC Vaslui in exchange for Ștefan Mardare. He scored his first goal for Vaslui against Neftchi Baku in the UEFA Intertoto Cup. At the end of the 2008–09 season, he was Vaslui's top scorer in all competitions, with eleven goals, tied with Mike Temwanjera.

On 5 April 2011, now playing for Steaua București, Burdujan scored the first and fifth goals in Steaua's 5–0 home victory over Unirea Urziceni.

Burdujan left Steaua, signing a two-and-a-half-year contract with Ukrainian team Chornomorets on 24 June 2011.

On 18 September 2014, it was announced Burdujan had joined Hoverla Uzhhorod from Tavriya Simferopol.
