He made his debut for CSKA Sofia on 7 May 1994, in a home match against Shumen. The fans soon drew comparisons between Deyanov and club legend Dimitar Yakimov.[1] Deyanov played several seasons in the Greek Super League for OFI Crete.[2] A highly talented player, his career was plagued by numerous injuries, the most serious of which he suffered in April 1998, keeping him out of action for close to a year.[1][3]
