Asociația Club Sportiv Fotbal Club Bacău, also known as FC Bacău, is a Romanian football club based in Bacău, Bacău County. The club was established in 2014 as a youth academy and currently competes in Liga III, the third tier of Romanian football.

History

The club was established in 2014 as a youth academy at the initiative of former FCM Bacău player Cristian Ciocoiu. The project also involved Adrian and Dragoș Pavăl brothers, the owners of Dedeman, one of the biggest home improvement retailer from Romania.

In 2022, Academia FC Bacău merged with Dinamo Bacău — a club that was promoted to Liga III in the summer of 2021 — through absorption and took their place in the third league.

Costel Enache was named as the first head coach of the senior team and led the club in its first season in Liga III to the play-off round, finishing 2nd overall in Series I and qualifying for the first round of the promotion play-off to Liga II. Băcăuanii lost to Metalul Buzău, 2–2 on aggregate and 3–4 in the penalty shootout.
