Marius Mouandilmadji (Arabic: ماريوس موانديلمادجي; born 22 January 1997), sometimes known as just Marius, is a Chadian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Süper Lig club Samsunspor and the Chad national team.
On 17 July 2018, Mouandilmadji signed a four-year contract with Porto.[1] Despite initial media reports stating that the youngster would play for the reserve side, manager Sérgio Conceição integrated him with the pre-season main squad.[2]
Mouandilmadji made his professional debut for the Primeira Liga title holders on 11 August as an 81st-minute substitute for fellow Coton Sport graduate Vincent Aboubakar, and scored the final goal of a 5–0 home win over Chaves.[3] He then dropped down to the second team in LigaPro, and scored both of their goals of a 2–1 win over Cova da Piedade on 11 November.[4]
On 9 January 2020, Mouandilmadji was loaned to last-placed Aves for the rest of the top-flight season.[5] After their relegation, he was named in Porto's first-team squad for 2020–21.[6] He rescinded his contract by mutual consent in January 2021, with 18 months remaining.[7]
After being a free agent for six months, Mouandilmadji signed a two-year contract with Belgian Pro League club Seraing in July 2021.[8]
On 7 July 2023, recently-promoted Süper Lig side Samsunspor announced the signing of Mouandilmadji on a three-year contract.[9]
In August 2019, Mouandilmadji was called up for the first time to the Chad national team, for a 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifier against neighbours Sudan.[10] He started the match, a 3–1 home loss on 5 September.[11] On 29 March 2022, Mouandilmadji scored his first goal for Chad, in a 2–2 draw with Gambia in the second leg of the preliminary round of qualification for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.[12]
