Summary

Nicușor Bancu has already proven to be a creative engine in the midfield for the 2026/27 Liga I season, having appeared five times and logged 350 minutes. With no goals to his name yet, he has contributed one assist and delivered 12 key passes, a rate of 3.09 per 90 minutes that far exceeds the midfielder baseline of 1.33. His shot activity is modest, with only two shots and none on target, translating to 0.51 shots per 90, below the baseline of 0.97, yet his passing creativity compensates for that lack of finishing. Defensively, Bancu has been active, recording ten tackles and four interceptions, which amounts to 2.57 tackles per 90 minutes, higher than the baseline of 1.84. His dribbling success - 2.06 per 90 - also surpasses the expected 0.68 for his position. Averaging a match rating of 7.18, Bancu’s performance so far demonstrates a clear propensity for chance creation and defensive contribution beyond the typical midfielder’s baseline.

Nicușor Bancu has played 440 minutes across 6 appearances in Liga I, at 0.00 goals per 90 against a positional baseline of 0.14, converting 0% of 2 shots and averaging 7.20 a match.

Per-player totals for 2026/27 from API-Football match stats, across 24 players. Click any column to sort. Goals/shot is conversion - goals divided by shots taken. Rating is API-Football's own 0-10 composite for each appearance, averaged here; it is their proprietary score, so treat it as a summary rather than an input. A blank from the provider means the player recorded none of that event, so it counts as zero. Form is 0-10: each appearance is scored as a per-90 composite of the stats that matter for that position, then the last 5 are compared with the player's own season baseline. 5 is their normal, green a hot run, red a cold one – it measures a player against themselves, not against the squad. Under 6 appearances shows a dash rather than a number off too small a sample.
