Marcelo case: argues with coach and leaves club

Rather bizarre what happened within the ranks of Fluminense: Marcelo argued with coach Mano Menezes in the final of the match against Gremio and, in the hours following the challenge, decided to leave the club.

In the final minutes of the match against Gremio, Menezes decided to insert Marcelo who, visibly displeased, challenged his coach’s decision. Moments before he was to enter the field, Menezes  had second thoughts and sent him to the bench. "I heard something I didn’t è like" he justified after the game.

"Fluminense FC and Marcelo Vieira announce the termination of their contract by mutual agreement between the parties. Trained in youth categories, Marcelo è returned to Fluminense in 2023, after participating in winning the Campeonato Carioca 2023 titles, the unprecedented Conmebol Libertadores 2023 and Recopa 2024 titles. Fluminense thanks Marcelo and will continue, as always, to support his success in all his challenges" reads the club’s website.
