Marcelo back in European football? Brazilian receives approval
Brazilian full-back Marcelo is without a club after terminating his contract amicably with Fluminense. THE disagreement with coach Mano Menezes may have been the reason for his departure.
His time at Fluminense was below expectations. He was champion of the 2023 Libertadores, but his performance was below anything he could show as one of the best full-backs in history.
Marcelo is at the club, and free to sign any project. At this time, there is no proposal information. However, in Spain, according to information from Defensa Central, Real Madrid’s doors are open to him.
It wouldn’t be to play football, but rather to work off the field. Marcelo is a great merengue idol and Florentino Pérez would like to count on his work as a kind of manager within the club, just as Roberto Carlos is.
Marcelo is aware and his son can weigh in
The big left-back is aware that Real Madrid have plans for him if he decides to hang up his shots. For now, no decision has been made, as Marcelo could receive big offers, even from Brazil.
Enzo Alves is the player’s son and plays for Real Madrid’s youth team. He is seen as one of the biggest promises of the future Merengue. Marcelo’s return to Spain could help him in this process.
There is no doubt that, sooner or later, the now former Fluminense full-back will return to Real Madrid, whether to be an ambassador, look after the youth teams or take part in other roles.
