Arnaud Randrianantenaina (born 3 January 2001) is a Malagasy professional footballer who plays as a forward for Egyptian Premier League club El Gouna and the Madagascar national team.
Club career
Randrianantenaina spent 2017 at Ajesaia before he was recruited by the CNaPS Sport coaching staff, who brought him to the team for the 2018 season at the age of 17. That year, he helped them to a league title and experienced continental football by playing in the qualifying rounds of the 2018–19 CAF Champions League against Zimbabwean champions F.C. Platinum.
Randrianantenaina trialled with French side Grenoble Foot 38 in January 2020, but "administrative issues" prevented the deal from finalizing on the eve of the winter transfer window. Ajesaia and CNaPS Sport had a dispute over his rights, and neither team signed off on the deal he was offered. He later signed with JS Saint-Pierroise of the Réunion Premier League in February 2021.
After one season in Réunion, Randrianantenaina was signed by Egyptian Premier League side El Gouna in early 2022.
