Marcel Băban (born 16 October 1968) is a Romanian former professional footballer who played as a striker for teams such as: Politehnica Timișoara, Rapid București, Corvinul Hunedoara, Darmstadt 98 or Bohemians Praha, among others.

After retirement, in 2010, Băban bought the club from his hometown, FC Jimbolia and transformed it in a football academy, named Marcel Băban Jimbolia. In March 2017 he bought third tier club, Nuova Mama Mia Becicherecu Mic, but due to lack of funding and some financial problems from the past, the club relegated twice (2017 and 2018) and even if it was spared from relegation in the summer of 2017, the next season was disastrous, finishing last with -14 points and dissolving.
