Real Madrid: Five players who will benefit from La Liga restart
Marcelo
Marcelo is in the same boat as Carvajal, except his competition is already watching him sink. In no way am I saying Marcelo is washed up, but father time is catching up with the Brazilian and it’s evident.
With Ferland Mendy already in the picture, Marcelo really needs to excel in the few games that remain if he wants to continue to captain the left-back position.
Next. Three players that should be loaned out for the 2020/2021 season. dark
Mendy has shown great promise in the matches he has played, even pushing his senior, Marcelo, to the sidelines. Ferland has shown great technical ability, speed, and discipline.
It’s no secret that Marcelo’s time at Real Madrid is starting to wind down, but poor performances could see him end up as Pepe 2.0, useful but not enough to keep paying and leaving on the squad list.
