This is the end of Marcelo's adventure at Fluminense. The Brazilian club has decided to release the defender.
Like many European legends, Marcelo decided in 2023 to return to Brazil by signing for Fluminense. It's not a premature retirement either since the left back is stacking up the matches. 19 last season, 17 this season, the former Real Madrid player brings all his experience.
However, during the match against Gremio (2-2) this Friday, Marcelo got confused with his coach. Originally, a problem of change. The coach had planned to bring the player in but waited for words that would not have pleased him.
“I was going to bring Marcelo in, but I heard something that I didn't like and I changed my mind,” explained Mano Menezes. A muscular exchange then follows between the two men.
An act severely condemned by the club which parted ways with the 36-year-old player.
“Fluminense FC and Marcelo Vieira announce that their contract has been terminated by mutual agreement. As a young player, Marcelo returned to Fluminense in 2023 and helped win the 2023 Campeonato Carioca, the 2023 Conmebol Libertadores and the 2024 Recopa. The institutional and emotional ties between Fluminense and Marcelo continue. The player's name was recently immortalized in the stadium of the Xerém training center. Fluminense thanks Marcelo and will continue, as always, to support his success in all his endeavors“, we can read in the press release from the Laranjeiras club in Rio.
