Universitatea Craiova — around the 1995/96 season (coach: Sorin Cîrțu)

Here is a concise profile of the club and context for the mid-1990s period when Sorin Cîrțu was managing Universitatea Craiova.

• Club identity: Universitatea Craiova (often listed in records as FC Universitatea Craiova) — one of Romania’s traditional top‑flight teams, based in Craiova.
• Competition level (1995/96): Competed in Romania’s top division, then called Divizia A, and in the national cup (Cupa României).
• Head coach: Sorin Cîrțu — former forward who moved into coaching. He led Craiova in the mid‑1990s during a transitional period for the club, combining experienced professionals with younger local talent.
• Home stadium: Ion Oblemenco Stadium (the club’s traditional ground in Craiova).
• Style and context: The team maintained Universitatea Craiova’s attacking tradition but was in a phase of rebuilding and consolidation in the mid‑1990s, aiming for steady league performances rather than title contention.
• Records and results: For full match results, final league table, cup runs and the exact 1995/96 first‑team squad (appearances, goals and lineups), consult dedicated historical databases and season archives listed below.
