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, winning three UEFA Intertoto Cup. He was part of the Brazil squad that won the 2004 Copa América.
Since 2016, he is managing Rio Branco-SP, which plays in the fourth tier of the São Paulo state football league.[1]
Career
[edit]Bordon was born in Ribeirão Preto. He played for Bundesliga side FC Schalke 04 between 2004 and July 2010.[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.
