Sebastian Árpád Mailat (born 12 December 1997) is a Romanian professional footballer who operates primarily as a winger for the Liga I club Botoșani.

Mailat began his senior career with his hometown team, ACS Poli Timișoara, in 2016. The following year, he transferred to CFR Cluj but struggled to secure a regular place in the squad. During his time at Cluj-Napoca, he was loaned out multiple times before ultimately joining Botoșani after his contract ended in 2022.

On the international stage, Mailat has represented Romania across various youth levels, including under-17, under-18, and under-19 squads.

Early career / ACS Poli Timișoara

Mailat first gained recognition at the age of 12 when he received an award for being the most technically skilled player in his age category at a national tournament organized by Gheorghe Hagi. After developing through the youth ranks at LPS Banatul Timișoara, he attracted interest from Steaua București during the summer of 2015; however, he ultimately decided to sign with his local club, ACS Poli Timișoara.

He made his professional debut in Romania's top division on 26 May 2016, marking the occasion by scoring a remarkable long-range goal in a 2–3 defeat against CSM Studențesc Iași.

CFR Cluj

At 19 years old, on 12 November 2017, Mailat committed to a four-year deal with fellow Liga I club CFR Cluj.[1] He made his first appearance two weeks later, entering as a substitute in the 66th minute for Adrian Păun during a 2–0 victory against Sepsi OSK in Liga I. Throughout the 2017–18 season, Mailat featured in 13 matches and netted one goal for "the White-Burgundies," contributing to their fourth league title.[2]

On 14 July 2018, he was in the starting lineup as CFR Cluj secured a 1–0 triumph over Universitatea Craiova in the Supercupa României.[3] Mailat made his European competition debut on 1 August 2018, replacing Ciprian Deac in the 43rd minute of the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round match against Malmö FF. The game ended in a 1–1 draw at home, but CFR was eliminated with a 1–2 aggregate score.[4] Later that month, on the 16th of August, he scored during a dominant 5–0 victory over Alashkert in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League.[5]

Loan Spells

On 11 January 2019, Mailat was loaned out to Gaz Metan Mediaș for the remainder of the season.[6] The following January, he moved on loan to Universitatea Cluj competing in Liga II,[7] where he appeared just three times for CFR's local competitors.

On 25 August 2020, Mailat secured another loan move, this time joining FC Voluntari for the entire season.[8] During his time there, he played in a total of 25 matches across all competitions and scored four goals.

Botoșani

On 4 January 2022, Valeriu Iftime, the owner of Botoșani, confirmed the acquisition of Mailat as a free agent.[9] He appeared for the first time in a 1–0 victory over Sepsi OSK on 20 January, and netted his sole goal of the season during a 5–0 triumph against his former club Gaz Metan Mediaș on 14 March.

Mailat recorded his initial career brace on 18 July 2022, contributing two goals in a 3–2 home win against Chindia Târgoviște during the opening match of the season.[10] He repeated this feat on 1 December in a 2–3 home defeat to FCSB. On 20 May 2023, Mailat scored his sixth brace of that campaign during a commanding 5–1 victory over Mioveni, concluding the season with a total of 16 goals across 36 league appearances.[11]
