A sensational indiscretion relaunched by La Gazzetta dello Sport. According to what is reported, in fact, Marcelo wants to return to the field soon (after having recently released himself – last November – from the Brazilians of Fluminense) and would like to face his first experience in an Italian club, playing the last great European adventure in Serie A. Hence the news according to which, in recent weeks, the entourage of the 36-year-old former green and gold international has knocked on the doors of several Serie A clubs, to understand if there was room for an opening for a negotiation. Among these, a survey was also carried out on Lecce, which has already shown interest in profiles of international appeal in the recent past. OFFERED TO LECCE – Marcelo has therefore proposed himself to the Salento club, given that the Apulian management is looking for a player capable of playing on the wing (albeit on both, in reality) and making his experience available to the coach Marco Giampaolo and in order to achieve salvation as soon as possible in this season. In the current state of affairs, the operation is complicated: at the moment, in fact, it has not gone beyond a simple exchange of information, however leaving room for the opening of a potential negotiation in the future (a deal made complex even by overall data). It would be a fascinating opportunity for Lecce, who in the past had already given the opportunity to acquire world-class stars like Umtiti. Everything, obviously, will depend on the ideas of sporting director Pantaleo Corvino and his project in this transfer session. TRUE LEGEND – Marcelo, needless to say, is one of the most successful players of this millennium having written the history of Real Madrid. The palmares includes five Champions Leagues, four Club World Cups, three European Super Cups, six La Liga, two King’s Cups and five Spanish Super Cups. In Brazil, he won a Copa Libeertadores and a Recopa Sudamericano with the Fluminense shirt, as well as a Confederations Cup with the national team. All UPDATES in REAL TIME!
