Eugen Cătălin Baciu (born 25 May 1980 in Vaslui) is a Romanian football player.
Baciu made his Divizia A debut in the FCM Bacău on 12 May 2001 with the 2–0 defeat of Gloria Bistriţa.[citation needed]
He played for Laminorul Roman and FCM Bacău.[when?]
Prior to joining Steaua București as a replacement for the injured Mirel Rădoi in 2004, signed for a fee of €230,000, not as a first team regular.[citation needed]
He had his best game on 2 October 2007, in Steaua București's 0–1 defeat against Arsenal in the Champions League; where he was voted the best player on the pitch for Steaua București in that match, when he somehow managed to make a very good marking at Emmanuel Adebayor.[1]
In the beginning of 2010–11 season, Baciu was demoted to the B squad after the arrival of new coach Victor Piţurcă. Soon after Piţurcă left the club, new coach Dumitrescu called him back to the first squad.[citation needed]
Baciu left Steaua in June 2011.[citation needed]
