Alin Artimon (born 31 August 1971 in Timisoara, Romania) is a former Romanian football player and current manager.
Artimon started his career at CS? Timisoara and played for the senior team of Politehnica Timi?oara before joining Steaua Bucuresti.
He was labeled the next Miodrag Belodedici, but he was plagued by injuries and never really managed to progress.
His subsequent career saw him play for Timisoara based teams, such as CFR and Poli, before moving on to FC One?ti and ending his career at Drobeta-Turnu Severin.
He started his manager career at the Divizia C team Telecom Timi?oara.
In 2004, he became the assistant of Gheorghe Mul?escu at Politehnica Timi?oara and later on, in autumn 2004, the team's head coach.
He continued his career as assistant and afterwards as head coach of Apulum Alba Iulia in Divizia A.
After a short stint as manager at Bihor Oradea in Divizia B in 2005, Artimon was recruited in summer 2006 at Poli as a youth-supervisor.
He received his big opportunity when being offered the manager position at the club after Sorin Cîrtu's release on 23 October 2006.
While initially viewed only as a temporary solution, a good streak of results meant that he would be given the chance to lead the team for the remainder of the season.
However, on 5 March 2007, Artimon resigned from his position as manager, stating that he did not wish to continue to work for the club if his efforts remain unappreciated.
The resignation came just two days after a draw against Dinamo Bucuresti, when Poli used the second team in protest against a two-match ban received by Artavazd Karamyan.
On the 26th of March 2007 he became the manager of the Divizia B team CFR Timi?oara.
In September 2008 he replaced Nikola Ilievski as manager at CSM Râmnicu Vâlcea.
On 30 July 2010, Artimon followed Sebi Tudor as manager at Juventus Bucuresti.
