Chad centre-forward Marius Mouandilmadji of Turkish club Samsunspor is being linked with a summer switch to La Liga side Real Sociedad, with reports suggesting the move currently carries a 63% probability.
The 28-year-old, who wears the number nine shirt for Samsunspor, is valued at €7.00m on Transfermarkt and is emerging as a potential attacking option for the San Sebastián club as they plan next season’s squad. The deal is at rumour stage and there is no indication yet of an agreement between the clubs.
Mouandilmadji’s contractual situation in Turkey is unclear, with no publicly listed expiry date on his Samsunspor deal. That uncertainty has prompted talk that the Chadian could yet run down his terms and become a free agent, a scenario that would significantly alter any fee Real Sociedad might have to pay.
Standing at 1.90m and operating primarily as a central striker, the right-footed forward has built a reputation as a physically imposing presence at the top end of the pitch. Born in Doba on 22 January 1998, he has become one of Chad’s most prominent exports in European football and currently has a market value that reflects his status as a leading attacker for the Süper Lig side.
Samsunspor, who compete in Turkey’s top flight, have used Mouandilmadji as a focal point in attack throughout the campaign, with his recent appearances closely monitored by scouts. In his latest outing – a league fixture for Samsunspor in the 2025-26 season – he led the line again, though detailed statistics from that match have not been officially published.
With La Liga football and the European stage on offer in San Sebastián, a move to Real Sociedad would represent a major step up in profile for Mouandilmadji and could prove pivotal in shaping the next phase of his career if the transfer speculation turns into a concrete deal.
