Eric Cosmin Bicfalvi (Romanian pronunciation: ['erik ˈbikfalvi], Hungarian: Bikfalvi Erik, Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈbikfɒlvi ˈɛrik]; born 5 February 1988) is a Romanian professional footballer who plays mainly as an attacking midfielder for Russian side FC Ural Yekaterinburg and the Romania national team.
In 2005, Bicfalvi began his senior career in the Romanian third division with Fink Fenster Petrești Carei, where he spent one year. During this period he made 23 appearances and scored 9 goals for the club. The following season Bicfalvi moved to Liga I side CSM Jiul Petroșani. After the team was relegated, he was signed by FC Steaua București on a five-year deal. In 2012, as his contract expired he subsequently joined Ukrainian club FC Volyn Lutsk. Bicfalvi ended the 2014–15 Ukrainian Premier League season as joint-top scorer with 17 goals, earning him on 7 July 2015 a transfer to Liaoning Whowin F.C. in the Chinese Super League. He did not adapt to life in China and after a brief spell with FC Dinamo București, main rival of his former team Steaua, he put pen on a contract with FC Tom Tomsk, newly promoted to the Russian Premier League.
