[edit] Club career

He started his English club career at Petersfield Town. He went on to score 12 goals in 15 games in the 2004/05 season before attracting the attention of higher league clubs.^{[citation needed]}

He joined Forest Green Rovers on loan from local side Bristol City of Football League One, then signed permanently when Bristol City showed their intention not to keep him. He was a consistent goalscorer for the Rovers with quick feet and plenty of snap-shots. Madjo left Forest Green in August 2006 and joined Stafford Rangers. Guy Madjo was the first ever full time player at Stafford Rangers.

Madjo joined Crawley Town on June 28, 2007. He enjoyed a great first few months of the 2007-08 season, with 11 league goals in 18 games. It was this form that led League One club Cheltenham Town to bring him in on a one month loan on November 21, 2007, with a view to a permanent move.^[1]

On January 11, 2008, it was announced that Madjo had returned from his loan spell and signed a permanent deal with Shrewsbury for £20,000.^[2]

[edit] International career

In November 2007, Madjo earned a call-up to the Cameroonian national football team after Samuel Eto'o was forced to withdraw following a thigh injury.^[3]

In May 2008 he was again called up to represent his country, as part of the Cameroonian under-23 squad for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.^[4]
