Marcelo José Bordon (born 7 January 1976) is a Brazilian former professional footballer who played as a centre-back. He is mostly known for his time in Germany, playing for Bundesliga teams VfB Stuttgart and Schalke 04. Since 2016, he is managing Rio Branco-SP.[1]
Career[]
Bordon was born in Ribeirão Preto. He played for Bundesliga side FC Schalke 04 between 2004 and July 2019.[2] He joined the club for a €2.6 million transfer fee from VfB Stuttgart. At Schalke 04, he formed a formidable central defence alongside Mladen Krstajić, boasting a formidable aerial ability and a capacity for leadership that earned him the role as team captain from the 2006–07 season until the summer of 2010. Although not a regular for the Brazil national team, he was part of the team that won the 2004 Copa América.
On 5 July 2010, Bordon's contract with Schalke was canceled[3] and he signed a one-year contract with Al-Rayyan Sports Club three days later on 8 July 2010,[4] earning approximately €6.5 million per year.
