Club career
Stanciu is a product of Unirea Alba Iulia's youth system, and started in the junior squad since he was 11 years old.[5] On 25 May 2008, he made his first team debut for Unirea Alba Iulia, at 15 years 18 days, coming off from the bench in a 4–1 victory over Corvinul Hunedoara.[5] The 2008-09 campaign was lost by the young midfielder, since he suffered a long-term injury which kept him out from the field for almost 7 months.[6] On 1 May 2010, Stanciu made his Liga I debut as he came on as a substitute for Nemanja Jovanović , in a 2–1 home win against Steaua Bucureşti.[7] In June, he was on trial with VfB Stuttgart,[4] but the discrepancy between Stuttgart's offer and Unirea's demands made the transaction collapsing.[8] On 20 March 2011, he scored his first goal for Unirea Alba Iulia, in a 3-0 win against Petrolul Ploieşti, and he also weared the captain's armband for the closing stages of the match, following Adrian Câmpeanu's substitution.[9] On 20 August he scored his last goal for his team, in Unirea's opening match against CSM Râmnicu Vâlcea.[10]
Vaslui
On 9 September 2011, Adrian Porumboiu paid Stanciu's release clause which turned him into a free agent, so therefore he signed with SC Vaslui.[11]
