Born in Corabia, Olt County, Screciu began his career with local CSȘ Corabia in 2010. The following year he joined the youth setup of FC Universitatea Craiova, and in 2013 moved to CS Universitatea Craiova.[2][3] On 2 October 2016, 16-year-old Screciu was handed his Liga I debut by head coach Gheorghe Mulțescu, entering in the 82nd minute of a 1–2 away loss to FC Steaua București.[4]
In April 2017, Portuguese newspaper O Jogo reported that Benfica showed interest in signing the player.[5] He was an unused substitute in the 2018 Cupa României Final on 27 May, as the Alb-albaștrii won 2–0 over Hermannstadt.[6] During his first spell at the club, Screciu amassed 44 appearances in all competitions.
On 19 June 2018, Genk announced the signing of Screciu on a three-year contract with the option of another year.[7] The Belgian team paid a rumoured fee of €2 million plus bonuses for the transfer.[8][9]
Screciu dealt with injuries during his spell in Belgium,[10] and returned to Universitatea Craiova in 2021.
