Souaibou Marou

Marou started his career with Cameroonian side Coton Sport, helping them win the league and reach the group stage of the CAF Champions League. In October 2022, he won the Cameroonian men's Ballon d'Or for 2022 as the best Cameroonian footballer of the year. In November 2022, it was reported that Marou had reached an agreement to join South African club Orlando Pirates, though Coton Sport denied any contract had yet been signed. On 14 March 2025, Marou signed for Charlotte Independence of the USL League One.

He represented Cameroon U23 for the 2021 Islamic Solidarity Games in Konya. He was selected for Cameroon's 2022 FIFA World Cup squad. He had earned his first cap for Cameroon hours earlier, and was one of only two domestic-based players to be included in the squad.
