Marius Baciu, the new coach of FCSB, has finalized his technical staff for the upcoming playoff match against FC Botoșani, which will take place on Sunday at 8:30 PM at Ghencea Arena. Baciu, a 51-year-old coach with a Pro license, has brought in Sorin Bucuroaia, with whom he has worked in the past, to join the existing staff led by Lucian Filip.

Baciu returned to coaching after a three-year hiatus. His last team was Al Nahda, a club in the second division of Saudi Arabia. He has also coached teams in Oman and Saudi Arabia, including Sohar, Al-Taqadom, Al-Arabi, and Al Nahda. In the last two years, Baciu was a sports analyst for Prima Sport.

On Monday, May 18, 2026, Gigi Becali announced that he had resolved the coaching problem at FCSB and had reached an agreement with Marius Baciu. Baciu signed a one-year contract with the club. According to Becali, Baciu impressed him with his human qualities and his willingness to manage the locker room without being a puppet.

Baciu and Bucuroaia will be present at the Tuesday morning training session and are expected to be officially introduced on Wednesday, May 20, 2026.
