Marcelo 'holds talks with Real Madrid director amid talk of exit'

Marcelo 'holds talks with Madrid director'

Real Madrid left-back Marcelo has reportedly held an hour-long meeting with managing director Jose Angel Sanchez to discuss his future at the Bernabeu.

The Brazil international has been slowly phased out since Santiago Solari took charge in November, starting just three La Liga matches this calendar year.

Marcelo's lack of minutes, with Sergio Reguilon instead being preferred, has resulted in speculation that he could be on his way to Juventus.

Despite insisting last week that he is focusing on life with Real, El Partidazo de COPE suggests that the long-serving defender is considering a summer exit.

Marcelo is said to have expressed his disappointment at playing back-up to Reguilon during the meeting with Madrid chief Sanchez, and he has made it clear that he is listening to offers.

The 30-year-old has spent more than a decade in the Spanish capital and has another two-and-a-half years left to run on his contract.
