He struggled against Messi during his time in the Spanish league, and now he is looking to continue his career.

Many players have tried to stop Lionel Messi, all failing beautifully, because when he is at his best he is virtually unstoppable. Real Madrid has suffered at the hands of Leo for over a decade, and this player in particular had a hard time playing against him in his Barcelona days. Now, he is desperately looking for a job.

The Brazilian left-back Marcelo was for many years one of the best players in the world. However, on more than one occasion, he was humiliated by ‘La Pulga’, left Real Madrid last season and does not know his future in the game. With no concrete offers in Europe, he is analyzing his return to his home country.

Reports from Brazil mention that Botafogo could be his next destination. Far from being one of the most powerful clubs in the country, the Real Madrid idol would be forced to accept the offer, since he cannot find another destination in Europe.

Marcelo's thoughts on Lionel Messi

Years ago, the Brazilian (winner of five Champions League titles with Real Madrid) was asked about which player has been the hardest to play against. The left-back said: "Messi is Messi, it would be hypocritical to say another player is the most difficult to face".
