Following this, Cristiano Ronaldo paid a vibrant tribute to his former teammate whom he considers “a brother”.
Like other Real Madrid footballers and former players of the club, Cristiano Ronaldo did not remain without writing a few touching words about Marcelo’s departure from the White House. “More than a teammate, a brother that football has given me. On and off the field, he is one of the biggest stars with whom I have had the pleasure of sharing a locker room. Go with everything in this new adventure, Marcelo! “Writes the five-time Ballon d’Or on his official Twitter account.

Coming to Real Madrid two years before Cristiano Ronaldo, Marcelo Vieira shared the Madrid locker room for almost a decade with the Portuguese star (2009-2018). On and outside the green rectangles, the Brazilian left-back and the Portuguese striker have a brotherhood that is no longer to be described. These few words from the Lusitanian striker say a lot about the bond that bound them.
