Marcelo, a great Brazilian football player, disclosed that he had explored the possibility of joining Al-Nassr with Cristiano Ronaldo, a former colleague of his who played for Real Madrid. Marcelo ultimately made the decision to return to his Brazilian roots, despite the fact that he had received offers, one of which came from the Saudi Arabian club where Ronaldo is currently playing.

Marcelo, who had left Olympiacos in February as a free agent, had garnered interest from a number of teams, including Al-Nassr, before to his departure. The friendship that the two of them formed during their winning seasons with Real Madrid was brought up during the conversation with Ronaldo, who plays for Al-Nassr. On the other hand, Marcelo, who is 35 years old, made the decision to go back to Brazil because he developed a strong desire to go back to his place of origin.

In the beginning of this year, Marcelo made a triumphant return to Fluminense, the team that he had played for when he was a young player. With the help of a move that turned out to be a dream come true, Fluminense was able to upset Boca Juniors by a score of 2-1 and win their very first Copa Libertadores trophy under his leadership.

Marcelo is now really enthusiastic about the future domestic challenges that Fluminense will face. He is hoping to capitalize on his achievements on the continental stage and his skills in order to guide the team to additional victories in the league. When Fluminense takes on Sao Paulo on November 23, it is anticipated that Marcelo will play a significant part in the organization’s efforts to achieve success.
