Fluminense and Marcelo end their collaboration

Everything went wrong quickly for Marcelo. Returning to his training club last season after a memorable romance with Real Madrid and a furtive stint at Olympiakos, the left defender has been in the colors of Fluminense since 2023. However, his adventure with the Rio de Janeiro club has officially ended a few minutes ago. Indeed, everything changed this Friday for the Real Madrid legend. Indeed, when he was going to come into play against Gremio (2-2), the famous number 12 of the Merengues did not return due to a word which would not have passed on to his coach Mano Menezes.
