Promising center forward Marino delivered an encouraging campaign for Paderborn in the Bundesliga 2, making 27 appearances including 14 starts and contributing six goals and one assist across 1,187 minutes...

Impact Marino established himself as a reliable goal-scoring option after earning his place in the starting lineup during the second half of the season, his six goals in limited minutes underlining his efficiency in front of goal and his ability to make an impact when given the opportunity. His progression from a fringe option to a trusted starter in the promotion run is an encouraging sign for Paderborn heading into the Bundesliga, and his clinical finishing and physical presence up front give the coaching staff a proven option at the tip of the attack. The step up to the top flight will be a significant test, but his form in the second half of the campaign suggests he could play a meaningful role next season if he continues on the same trajectory.
