Subject to international clearance, the 21-year-old Sky Blues development player crosses the border for an unknown sum.

Wearing the captain’s armband on several occasions, Marco was a valuable player of the Sky Blues Under-21 team that advanced to the Birmingham Senior Cup final in 2022–2023.

In addition to sitting on the sidelines for Sky Blues first team games in recent seasons, he has spent time on loan at Chorley FC and his hometown FC Universitatea Cluj in Romania during the latter half of the previous campaign.

“Everyone at Coventry City would like to wish Marco the best of luck for the future,” the club stated.
