Marin began his senior career with Viitorul Constanța at age 17, quickly establishing himself as a first-team regular. His performances earned him a move abroad to Standard Liège at the start of 2017, where he won the Belgian Cup in his first full season. In 2019, he transferred to Dutch team Ajax for a reported fee of €12.5 million, but did not impose himself and joined to Cagliari on an initial loan.
Marin made his senior international debut for Romania in October 2016, after having previously played for the country at several youth levels. He represented the nation in the UEFA Euro 2024, where they advanced to the round of 16 as group winners.
