Bogdan Sorin Stancu (Romanian pronunciation: [boɡˈdan soˈrin ˈstaŋku]; born 28 June 1987) is a Romanian professional footballer who plays for Turkish club Bursaspor and the Romania national team. Nicknamed Motanul, he plays as a centre-forward or in a more supporting role as a second striker or a left winger.
Stancu started his professional career at Argeș Pitești, also having a brief loan spell at Mioveni. Due to an irregularity in his contract he left the club and joined Unirea Urziceni. In the summer of 2008, after two years at Urziceni, he moved to Steaua București and finished his first season as Steaua's top scorer with 11 goals. In the first half of the 2010–11 season Stancu managed to score 16 times in 27 games after which Galatasaray paid €5m to secure his services. After a not so successful stint at the Turkish club, he was loaned for a year to Orduspor, after which he joined them on a permanent basis. After Orduspor was relegated from the Süper Lig Stancu moved to Gençlerbirliği for an undisclosed fee.
He was discovered at a trial by coach Mihai Ianovschi in 1998, who took him to the junior team of FC Argeș Pitești.
