Alex Zotinca (born January 22, 1977 in Sibiu, Romania) is a Romanian soccer defender, who currently plays for C.D. Chivas USA of Major League Soccer in the United States.
Zotinca began his career with FC Inter Sibiu, where he played from 1995 to 1998. In 1998 he moved to F.C. Steaua Bucharest, where he would play from 1998 to 2000, and with whom he would appear in the UEFA Cup.
In 2000, Zotinca won a United States Green Card in an immigration lottery, and left Romania for America. He played for four years for the Kansas City Comets of the MISL, being named to the All-Rookie team in 2000-01, and the All-Star team in 02-03. Near the beginning of the 2003 MLS season, Zotinca was signed by the Wizards. He did well in his first year, starting 14 games and playing 1239 minutes in a variety of positions for the Wizards. In 2004, Zotinca firmly established himself at the right back position, and played most of the team's minutes there, appearing in 25 games and playing 1779 minutes. He played a similarly important role during the next two seasons, but failed to sign a new contract with the team for the 2007 season and was traded to Chivas USA.
