Florea Văetuș was born on 23 November 1956 in Hunedoara, Romania and started playing junior level football at local clubs Constructorul and Corvinul.[1] He started to play football at senior level in 1975 at Divizia B club Victoria Călan, after one year moving to play for Mureșul Deva.[1][3] He was supposed to make his Divizia A debut playing for Corvinul Hunedoara in a match against Sportul Studențesc București which was postponed because of the 1977 Vrancea earthquake, so on 20 March, coach Ladislau Vlad gave him his debut in a 2–2 against Jiul Petroșani.[1][3] He spent five seasons at Corvinul, staying with the club when it relegated to Divizia B, helping it promote back to the first division after one year under coach Mircea Lucescu and in the middle of the 1981–82 season he was transferred to Dinamo București.[1][3] In his first season spent at Dinamo, the club won The Double under coach Valentin Stănescu, Văetuș playing 13 matches and scoring five goals in the league, also being used all the minutes in the 3–2 victory over FC Baia Mare from the Cupa României final.[1][3][4][5] In the following season, he was coached by Nicolae Dumitru, winning another title, scoring seven goals in 31 matches, also appearing in five games from the 1982–83 European Cup season as the club got past Vålerenga and Dukla Prague in the first rounds, being eliminated by Aston Villa after a 6–2 aggregate loss.[1][3][4][6] In the summer of 1983 Văetuș and teammates Nicușor Vlad, Teofil Stredie and other two players were transferred from Dinamo to Corvinul in exchange for Mircea Rednic and Ioan Andone.[7] He played five seasons for Corvinul in his second spell, making his last Divizia A appearance on 22 June 1988 in a 2–1 loss against Rapid București, having a total of 308 games with 71 goals scored in the competition.[1] After he ended his playing career in 1991 at Divizia B team, Metalurgistul Cugir, Văetuș worked as a manager at teams from the lower leagues of Romania.[8]
