<p><strong>Marcelo</strong>, regarded by many as one of the best left-backs in soccer history, left an indelible mark during his time at <strong>Real Madrid</strong>. As a teammate of <strong>Cristiano</strong> <strong>Ronaldo </strong>and a frequent opponent of <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> </strong>during El Clásico showdowns, the Brazilian has often been asked to weigh in on the rivalry between the two all-time greats. </p>



<p>In a 2020 conversation with Fabio Cannavaro, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/marcelo">Marcelo</a> gave his take on the debate. Instead of choosing sides, Marcelo celebrated both players for their unmatched brilliance, acknowledging how they defined an era of soccer.</p>



<p>“<em><strong>You can’t say who’s better. </strong>I played ten years with <strong>Cristiano, and the motivation he gives you on the field is unique—how he lifts you up</strong>,”</em> Marcelo said. <em>“<strong>Messi stands still, takes the ball, and out of nowhere, he creates something—a goal.</strong> When people ask who’s better, it’s just to ‘bother’ us players. We can say who we like more, but not who’s better.”</em></p>



<p>Marcelo also reflected on the challenges of facing Messi. “<em>When teams play against Real Madrid, it’s like it’s the last game of their lives. Since I attack a lot, they come down my side. I never played against Cristiano, <strong>but Messi is Messi. It would be hypocritical to say there’s anyone harder to mark</strong>,”</em> he admitted.</p>

<p>When speaking about his longtime teammate <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Ronaldo</a>, Marcelo highlighted the Portuguese star’s leadership and impact. <em>“I’ve trained with Cristiano, played ten years with him. <strong>The motivation he gives on the field, the things he does, how he talks to you and uplifts the team—it’s top level,”</strong></em> Marcelo said.</p>

<h2>Marcelo’s legacy at Real Madrid</h2>



<p>Marcelo is firmly cemented as one of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid’s</a> all-time greats. Joining the club in the winter of 2007, he played <strong>546 matches</strong>, <strong>scoring 38 goals</strong> and providing <strong>101 assists</strong>. Across his 15-year career with <em>Los Blancos</em>, he collected 25 trophies, including <strong>five UEFA Champions League titles</strong>—trailing only Luka Modrić, Paco Gento, Dani Carvajal, and Nacho in total European triumphs.</p>



<h2>Marcelo’s current status</h2>



<p>Now 36, Marcelo is without a club. A dispute with <strong>Fluminense </strong>head coach <strong>Mano Menezes </strong>led to the termination of his contract. After leaving Olympiacos in 2022, Marcelo returned to Fluminense and helped the Rio de Janeiro-based club pursue titles like the Copa Libertadores at the iconic Maracanã. During his stint with the team, Marcelo played 85 matches, scoring eight goals and providing eight assists. As he weighs his next move, the veteran defender <strong>remains a free agent.</strong></p>

<p>It was a play that shocked the entire world, former <strong>Real Madrid</strong> star <strong>Marcelo</strong> unintentionally dropping his studs on the leg of Luciano Sánchez of Argentinos Juniors in a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-libertadores" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Copa Libertadores</a> match.

<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230802#BUS#40017"></div>


<p>Sadly, According to Diario Ole, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/fluminense" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Fluminense</a> are trying to take advantage of that good will and have asked Conmebol to take away Marcelo’s red card given that the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazilian national team</a> star did not really want to injure the player.</p>



<h2>Fluminense want Marcelo’s red card taken away</h2>



<p>Fluminense will present video and images that prove their case to Conmebol, the intent is to have the red card taken away since they view the play as an unfortunate accident.</p>

However, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/la-liga-t48" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>La Liga</strong></a> giants were more focused on selling, <strong>something they’d be prepared to do again</strong> come January.

<p><em>Los Blancos</em>, who were relatively quiet a few months ago by only signing <strong>David Alaba</strong> on a free from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bayern-munich-t112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bayern Munich</a> and <strong>Eduardo Camavinga</strong> for €31m ($35m) from <strong>Rennes</strong>, <strong>have cashed in nearly €80m ($90m)</strong> from <strong>Raphael Varane</strong>‘s transfer to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/manchester-united-t10" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Manchester United</strong></a> and <strong>Martin Odegaard</strong>‘s move to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/arsenal-t418" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Arsenal</strong></a>.</p>

<h2>Report: Bale among players who could leave Real Madrid in winter</h2>
<p>According to <em>Marca</em>, there are real possibilitiesthat Gareth Bale and <strong>Isco</strong> could leave Madrid in January. Both of them are<strong> set to become free agents in the summer</strong> as <em>Carletto</em> would not be interested in keeping them beyond June.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p>Therefore, the report claims Real Madrid <strong>would listen to offers for any of them</strong> during the next month. Club legend <strong>Marcelo</strong>‘s future is also up in the air with his deal expiring on June 2022.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, <em>Marca</em> adds that the situation of<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-reportedly-eye-canadian-sensation-who-could-replace-eden-hazard-20211223-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Eden Hazard</strong></a>, <strong>Mariano</strong>, and<strong>Luka Jovic</strong> is a bit different because Ancelotti counts on them but the club would be open to receiving offers regardless.</p>
<p>It remains to be seen how many teams will be interestedin paying a fee for any of these players. Bale, Isco, and Marcelo will be available for free in the summer, when Madrid hope to boost their roster with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/kylian-mbappe-t136335" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong></a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/erling-haaland-t178262" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Erling Haaland</strong></a>.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p>One of the transfer sagas of the last two years, <strong>Paul Pogba</strong> is an extraordinary soccer player who may have done all he could for a subpar Manchester United side. Real Madrid, Juventus and PSG are just three of the major clubs who want the world champion.</p>
<h2>Franck Kessie – Midfielder</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p></p></div>
<p>AC Milan midfield ace <strong>Franck Kessie</strong> is said to be wanted by PSG and Manchester United, with the AC Milan project still getting off the ground Kessie may find it hard to say no to teams who will want to win now.</p>
<h2>Paulo Dybala – Forward</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20211203_BUS_180027_paulo_dybala_crop1638561418547.jpg_20222851_af9b184d.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Paulo Dybala (Photo by Francesco Pecoraro/Getty Images)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Paulo Dybala </strong>is a talented soccer player who may have never lived up to his hype but has very impressive numbers. Dybala like many at Juventus will have to think twice about staying for a club that could be in Serie B come next year if found guilty of their financial wrongdoings. Dybala is a star at Juve but will he turn down a chance to play in the Premier League as rumors have stated some clubs are interested in him.</p>
<h2>Kylian Mbappe – Forward</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20211203_BUS_180027_kylian_mbappe_crop1638561475071.jpg_20222851_1bda6cf0.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Kylian Mbappe (Photo by Laurence Griffiths/Getty Images)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>Two words, <strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong>, he’s basically Real Madrid’s to lose at this point. Mbappe is said to have been house hunting and flirting with Real Madrid for two years now. Other than a shock resigning at PSG, which looks doubtful, Mbappe is Madrid bound.</p>
<h2>Luis Suarez – Forward</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20211203_BUS_180027_luis_suarez_crop1638561535321.jpg_20222851_b7714b7e.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption>    Luis Suarez (Photo by Gonzalo Arroyo Moreno/Getty Images)   </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p>He may have lost a step or two, but <strong>Luis Suarez</strong> is still a lethal finisher in front of goal. It’s doubtful that major clubs will want to take a chance on Suarez at the tail end of his career, and even Atlético Madrid should be thinking about a replacement, still there are second tier teams that would take Suarez in a heartbeat and there is also that long standing rumor of his arrival to the Seattle Sounders of MLS. </p>

Mbappe, Suarez and Pogba among best free agents in summer 2022: Starting XI with players going out of contract

Mbappe, Suarez and Pogba among best free agents in summer 2022: Starting XI with players going out of contract - Bolavip US

<p><strong>Carlo Ancelotti</strong> isenjoying a positive start to life in his second spell in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/real-madrid-t23" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Real Madrid</strong></a>. Under challenging circumstances, the Italian manager took the helm of a team that came up short bothin the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/la-liga-2020-2021-table-how-things-stand-ahead-of-the-final-round-20210520-0010.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>2020-21 La Liga</strong></a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Champions League</strong></a> under <strong>Zinedine Zidane</strong>.</p>
<p>Unlike in 2013, hedidn’t inherit a squad with the likes of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/cristiano-ronaldo-t2" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Cristiano Ronaldo</strong></a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/psg-roster-2021-2022-list-of-paris-saint-germain-players-this-season-20210809-0019.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Sergio Ramos</strong></a>. The outlook was different this time, but that didn’t prevent him from delivering positive results at the beginning of the campaign.</p>
<p>However, the truth is that the club is in rebuild mode as it has its sights set on going all in next summer, hoping to land <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/kylian-mbappe-t136335" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Kylian Mbappe</strong></a> from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/psg-t16721" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>PSG</strong></a>, and why not, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/erling-haaland-t178262" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Erling Haaland</strong></a> from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/borussia-dortmund-t147" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Borussia Dortmund</strong></a>. And to make room for them, <strong>a number of players could see the way out</strong>.</p>

<h2>Real Madrid reportedly prepareclearout: Hazard, Bale top the list</h2>
<p>The optimistic start to the season doesn’t seem to change the fact that Real Madrid <strong>will continue to make changes</strong> in the upcoming transfer windows. It’s not a secret that their intention is <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/psgs-kylian-mbappe-breaks-silence-and-confirms-he-wanted-to-go-to-real-madrid-in-the-summer-20211004-0006.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">to have Mbappe as the face of the new-look Madrid</a>, but in order to achieve that they’d have to <strong>reduce their wage bill</strong>.</p>
<p>According to <em>As</em>, there’s a list of players who’s future would no longer be at Santiago Bernabeu. We’re talking about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/eden-hazard-t173971" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Eden Hazard</strong></a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/gareth-bale-t200918" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Gareth Bale</strong></a>, <strong>Marcelo</strong>, <strong>Isco</strong>, <strong>Luka Jovic</strong>, and <strong>Jesus Vallejo</strong>. The Belgian star has failed to impress since making a sensational move from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/chelsea-t200" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Chelsea</strong></a> and his constant injuries have marred his stay at the club so far. It remains to be seen whether he’s givenmore opportunities, but <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/carlo-ancelotti-not-standing-in-the-way-of-real-madrid-star-that-could-leave-in-transfer-window-20211102-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>a transfer could be on the cards</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Regarding Bale, <strong>it’s been a long time since he last played at his best</strong> in a Madrid uniform. Withhis <strong>contract running out next summer</strong>, the club wouldn’t offer a renewal. That’s the same case for Marcelo and Isco. The Brazilian is a club icon and the Spanishmidfielder has also been part of El Merengue’s successes over the last few years, but <strong>they have not been first team regulars for a while</strong>. Besides, Madrid <strong>would save up a total of €62m oftheir salaries.</strong></p>
<p>Jesus Vallejo wouldbe shown the exit door simply because he doesn’t have room in the team, while Real Madrid apparently <strong>wantto cash in for Jovic</strong>. The Serbian striker arrived for a mind-blowing €63 million from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bundesliga-t111" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Bundesliga</strong></a> side <strong>Eintracht Frankfurt</strong> in 2019 but has never lived up to the expectations. After sending him back to Frankfurton loan, Madrid may want to finally <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/report-arsenal-eye-real-madrid-outcast-as-alexandre-lacazette-replacement-20211103-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sell him</a>.</p>

Real Madrid: Eden Hazard, Gareth Bale reportedly headline outgoing players list

Real Madrid: Eden Hazard, Gareth Bale reportedly headline outgoing players list - Bolavip US

<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/inter-miami-t53162" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Inter Miami</strong></a> are once again being linked with a big-name player. This timereports state that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/real-madrid-t23" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Real Madrid</strong></a> idol <strong>Marcelo</strong> is the new man on The Herons’ radar, as the left-back maynot longer stay with theSpanish giants. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/david-beckham-t27629" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>David Beckham</strong></a>‘s influence could be crucial for his arrival to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/mls-t16956" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>MLS</strong></a>.</p>
<p>The Brazilian player and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/la-liga-t48" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>La Liga</strong></a> team might part ways at the end of this season, <strong>despite</strong> <strong>his deal runs out in June 2022</strong>. The No. 12 is not the key piece he used to be for Los Blancos anymore and following 14 successfulyears<strong>both parties may agreeto finish the contract one year earlier</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-zinedine-zidane-might-step-down-at-the-end-of-the-season-possible-replacements-20210507-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Whether or not <strong>Zinedine Zidane</strong> stays in charge of the Merengues</a>,Marcelo will likely leave Madrid in the summer and the US could be on the horizon. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/top-30-florida-sports-teams-with-most-fans-20200425-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miami</a>, who already have the likes of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/gonzalo-higuain-t14" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Gonzalo Higuaín</strong></a> and<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/david-beckahm-inter-miami-could-face-sanctions-over-broken-mls-budget-rules-20210417-0003.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Blaise Matuidi</strong></a> in their squad, would be eager to land the famous defender.</p>
<h2>Marcelo’s days in Madrid setto be over whileMiami would be ready to go after him</h2>

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>The 33-year-old’s form went down in the last couple of seasons</strong>, as he not only became older but remained sidelined with continuous muscular injuries as well. There’s no doubt that he became a club legend in one of the most prosperous years in Los Blancos’ history, but <strong>his best days seem to be way behind him</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Ferland Mendy</strong> has been <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/real-madrid-top-goalscorers-all-time-20201112-0018.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Real Madrid</a>‘s starter until he got injured, but the club will be probably looking for other options than staying with Marcelo, even though he still has one year left in his contract. According to Spanish outlet <em>As</em>, <strong>the Merengues and the player would reach an agreement to break the deal this summer</strong>for the best of both.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p>Moreover, that newspaper has reported that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/inter-miami-looking-to-make-drv-pnk-stadium-a-fortress-in-2021-20210419-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Inter Miami</a> <strong>might be interested in landing the left-back</strong>.

Many years later, the Britishman has ambitious plans for his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/top-25-highest-assisters-in-mls-history-20210406-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MLS</a> team and <strong>wants to go further with another massive signing</strong>.</p>
<p>While the left-back may not be a priority for the Spanish side anymore, he would be a high-profile addition for The Herons. Asides from his talent and experience, <strong>Marcelo’s arrival would provide <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/inter-miami-eyeing-former-england-full-back-to-strengthen-squad--20210510-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Inter Miami</a> another well-known superstar that might attract fans to the stadiums and sell jerseys</strong>. For the Brazilian figure, it would be the best way to spend the final days of his playing career ina different league living in a beautiful city. The move seems more than plausible, although he would have to reduce his salary demands.</p>
