Date of birth18 January 1976
Place of birthBuenos Aires
NationalityArgentine
Weight70 kg
Height1.69 m
PositionMidfielder

Having spent seven seasons at River Plate, including their 1996 Copa Libertadores success, Marcelo was an immediate success when he moved to Monaco for £5.5million in 1999 as the La Championnat title came to the Stade Louis III for the first time. He has gone on to be a great favourite at Monaco and resolved to stay with the club despite a much-publicised recent disagreement with coach Didier Deschamps. Nicknamed El Muneco (the doll), although he remains behind Juan Sebastian Veron and Pablo Aimar in the Argentine pecking order, he is an inspirational central midfielder with tremendous style.
