Marcelo remains a bad luck charm for Zidane

After a successful and eventful career, Marcelo is walking towards his last days at the highest level. The Brazilian was disappointing for Real Madrid in the defeat against Valencia and it is not the first time that he has suffered from poor form.

The Brazilian, who in attack continues being effective, is no longer as impressive in defense as he used to be. And Real Madrid is noticing it.

Since Zinedine Zidane returned to the club, Real Madrid has only lost nine league matches and Marcelo was in the team in all of them.

Without him, the club's record is immaculate: 20 wins and nine draws that largely helped the league title in the 2019-20 campaign.

Marcelo is a footballer who has given Real Madrid a whopping 22 titles, but, from a distance, it seems that Mendy has taken the lead for good.

In the five games he has played this season, all of them complete, Marcelo has been able to give out two assists. However, the balance is two victories and three defeats.
