Cameroonian forward Marcelin Gando is drawing increasing interest from across Europe following his departure from North Macedonian side Rabotnicki, with multiple clubs vying for his signature during the summer window.
Currently a free agent, the 28-year-old has become a key target for FC Botoșani in Romania’s top flight.
The Romanian outfit is reportedly seeking to bolster its attacking options ahead of the new season and has identified Gando as a strong candidate to lead the line.
FC Botoșani has shown clear intent in recent days. They’ve positioned themselves seriously and could be the first to make a concrete move, a source close to the negotiations revealed.
However, the Romanian side faces stiff competition.
In Serbia, IMT Novi Belgrade is also monitoring Gando’s situation closely, while interest has surfaced from several clubs in Armenia, where enquiries have already been made regarding the striker’s availability.
Gando, known for his pace, finishing, and experience in Eastern European leagues, is now weighing his options carefully as offers continue to materialize.
Despite his modest Transfermarkt valuation of €250,000, the striker’s potential impact—particularly for mid-table clubs in need of attacking reinforcement—has made him a coveted asset.
A decision on his next club is expected soon, with Gando reportedly keen on a move that offers both competitive football and the opportunity to play a pivotal role.
Sources suggest the Cameroonian is open to returning to a league where he has prior experience but is equally intrigued by the challenge of adapting to a new footballing environment.
The coming days could prove decisive, as clubs look to finalize their squads ahead of pre-season preparations.
For Gando, the next chapter in his career is fast approaching—and the growing list of suitors is a clear indication of his value on the European stage.
