Alexandru Bourceanu (born 24 April 1985) is a Romanian minifootball player and former footballer. A defensive midfielder, he was known for his combative playing style, being physically strong in spite of his short stature. He plays for the Romania minifootball national team with whom he won the 2023 WMF World Cup.
Born in Galaţi, Bourceanu has played central defensive midfielder for various local clubs. He transferred from Politehnica Timișoara to Steaua București in the summer of 2011. After just 10 league matches, Bourceanu became team's captain.[1]
On 3 February 2014, Trabzonspor completed a 3.5-year deal for an undisclosed fee for the 28-year-old midfielder who had less than six months left on his contract.[2] He was loaned back home to recover completely from an injury.[3]
On 13 January 2017, he signed a contract with the Russian Premier League side Arsenal Tula. The contract is for 1.5 years with an additional one-year extension option.[4]
On 29 October 2019, Bourceanu signed a one-season contract with Liga II side SCM Gloria Buzău.[5]
