It is a small page in its history that Real Madrid will turn this summer. The left side Marcelo confirmed, in the wake of his 5th Champions League won against Liverpool this Saturday (1-0), to put an end to his Madrid adventure. “It’s an incredible emotion because it’s my last game at Real Madrid,” said the Brazilian in remarks reported by AS. Going to a Champions League is an immense joy. It’s not a sad day. We discussed it and decided it was better that way.
34-year-old Marcelo was at the end of his contract at Real. He arrived in January 2007 from Fluminense to take over from Roberto Carlos. He leaves Madrid as the most successful player in club history (25 trophies) and after 545 matches. The Brazilian had played only 18 matches this season, including 7 as a starter, dislodged from his post by Frenchman Ferland Mendy.
