Bontaine sports director Roland Velkus said: "Machino is a versatile striker who can play multiple positions and provides more possibilities for our offensive end. He has proved that he can score double-digit goals in the Bundesliga last season, so we are very happy that he chose to join Borussia Mönchengladbach."
Mönchengladbach Shōok played in 32 Bundesliga games for Kiel last season. He said: "I strongly desire to transfer to Borussia Mönchengladbach and am extremely happy to reach an agreement. Now I will do my best to help the team as soon as possible."
Between 2018 and 2023, Machino Shuitou played in the Japanese domestic league, and during this period he played in 159 official games to win 46 goals.

The following year, he scored 7 goals in 32 Japanese B games.
In early 2021, the attacker transferred to the Japanese League team Xiangnan Ocean. After 4 goals in 31 games in his first season, he ushered in an explosion in 2022, scoring 13 goals in 30 games and ranking among the top scorers in the league. In the first half of 2023, he continued to be in a hot state, winning 9 goals in 19 league games.
In the summer of 2023, Shuitou Machino landed in Europe to join Kilholstein. He immediately became a core player, contributing 5 goals and 6 assists in 31 games in the Bundesliga, and was a key contributor to the first time in the club's history. In the 2024-25 Bundesliga season, the Japanese international continued to shine, handing over a report card of 11 goals and 2 assists, including a 4-3 victory in the 31st round against Dortmund. At the national team level, Shuito Machino has played 8 appearances for the Japanese adult team so far and has scored 4 goals. In his 6-0 victory against Hong Kong, China on July 19, 2022, he won two goals in his debut. Although he was selected for the 2022 Qatar World Cup Japan roster, he did not get a chance to play.
