Gabi Iancu signs with Terrassa FC but cannot debut until 2027

Terrassa FC have officially confirmed the signing of Romanian forward Gabi Iancu following his departure from Concordia Chiajna. The club announced that an agreement was reached for the player to join their first team squad in Spain's fourth division. Despite completing the move during the current championship period, Iancu cannot make his official debut for Terrassa until the transfer window opens on January 1, 2027.

Terrassa FC currently sit fourth in Segunda B with 18 points after nine rounds of matches. The addition of Iancu brings a player with significant European competition experience to the squad. Club statements highlighted his background in the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League, and UEFA Nations League as key attributes for the team.

Iancu arrives at Terrassa after a brief stint at Liga 2 side Concordia Chiajna, where he signed in mid-August. He recorded one goal in eight matches for the Romanian second-tier club before securing this move abroad. Transfermarkt currently values the striker at 150,000 euros.

The forward’s career includes four Romanian league titles and two Supercups won in the SuperLiga. He also holds one domestic Cup title. During the 2019-2020 season with Viitorul Constanţa, Iancu finished as the league's top scorer with 18 goals and recorded 20 goals across 32 matches in all competitions.

Iancu has earned four caps for Romania's senior national team and represented the country at U17, U18, U19, and U21 levels. His previous club history includes over 80 appearances for FCSB. In 2013, Gigi Becali paid 500,000 euros to Viitorul for his transfer, and FCSB later repurchased him from Viitorul for the same fee.

During contract negotiations at FCSB, Iancu stated that Gigi Becali set a release clause of 25,000,000 euros. Iancu recounted that agents Victor Becali and Zoltan Iasko were present when this clause was established. Despite making numerous appearances for the club, he was not sold for a large sum during his tenure.
