The former player’s visit came on the eve of the decisive derby against Vasco, valid for the second leg of the Copa do Brasil round of 16. The two teams face each other this Wednesday (05), at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at the Maracanã, fighting for a place in the next stage of the national competition.

Developed in Xerém’s youth academy, Marcelo returned to Fluminense in 2023 after building a historic career in the Real Madrid shirt. Across his two spells with Tricolor, he played 108 matches and won major titles: the 2023 Campeonato Carioca, the club’s first-ever 2023 Copa Libertadores, and the 2024 Recopa Sudamericana.
