Goran Pandev (born 27 July 1983) is a Macedonian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Italian club Genoa. He is the captain of the North Macedonia national football team, and is the country's all-time top scorer.
Considered to be one of the greatest Macedonian players of all time, Pandev is a quick, creative, and hard-working left-footed forward with good technique, who is capable both of creating and scoring goals, due to his opportunism and shooting accuracy, as well as his vision and passing ability. He is capable of playing in several offensive positions, either on the right or through the centre of the pitch, and he is usually deployed in a supporting role, as a winger, as a second striker, or as an attacking midfielder, although he has also been fielded as a striker or as a false-9.
After establishing himself at Lazio, Pandev moved to Inter Milan in early 2010. While playing for the Nerazzurri, Pandev collected a host of honours including winning the Serie A, the Coppa Italia and the UEFA Champions League in 2010 as part of a treble for the club. On 22 April 2021 he became the first Macedonian to score a 100 goals in one of the top five football championships.<\/P>","A16D5E6475634BB1C2248B183B7E41495B218039EB2EF0A3":"1","82CBDCB828DBDF896209A361CA981BCF":"","C6E00DEB351621C4":"19867","09702F2B27619389F07D77F05427B135":"2022-1-31","8DC362CCE065919BCF40467C0DE6A7E8":"
