Official: Marcelo Returns To Former Club

Marcelo - joined Olympiacos from Real Madrid on a free transfer

Brazilian full-back Marcelo has returned to his former club after leaving Greek giants Olympiakos.

The 35-year-old's joined Olympiakos on a free transfer last year after parting ways with Real Madrid, but his time in Greece came to an end this month after mutually terminating his contract.

Despite being linked with a move to Cristiano Ronaldo's Al Nassr, the left-back has now decided to go back to where it all started after signing with Fluminese.

The five-time UEFA Champions League winner has put pen-to-paper on a two-year deal with the Brazilian top-flight outfit.

"It's difficult to express what this moment means to me," Marcelo told the club website.

"I've been dreaming of returning to my origins for many years, to the team that trained me and taught me what I know about football."
