Born in Sânnicolau Român, Bihor County, Petrila started his football career with LPS Bihorul Oradea.

Upon his return in Cluj-Napoca, in July 2021 he netted in the consecutive 3–2 and 2–1 league wins over FC U Craiova and Academica Clinceni, respectively. On 30 September 2021, Petrila scored his first European goal in a 1–1 draw with Danish club Randers in the UEFA Europa Conference League group stage.[6]
