The "Olympiakos" team was joined by one of the best defenders of all time, Marcelo. The 34-year-old Brazilian signed a one-year contract with the Greek club with the possibility of extending the contract for another year after the season. Last season, Marcelo played 15 matches in the Champions League and "La Liga" for Real Madrid. Since 2009, the defender has made a total of 78 assists while representing the royal club. On the last day of the transfer window, Leicester City also showed interest in the veteran's services, but ultimately Olympiacos took the decisive step. Olympiacos will play in the Europa League this season.
