Alexandru Maxim featured for Gaziantep in the Turkish Süper Lig, where the team stood 14th with nine points as of November 2026. He was listed alongside Deian Sorescu as a Romanian player in the club's current squad during this period.
Manager Anghel Iordănescu excluded Maxim from Romania’s final EURO 2016 squad when the roster was announced. This decision also omitted Adrian Ropotan and Ioan Hora from the tournament selection.
Former midfielder Adrian Ropotan revealed that food poisoning during a preparatory match led to his exclusion from Romania's final squad for EURO 2016 by coach Anghel Iordănescu.
