Marcelo is the first of the three Brazilians on this list who has a lot of love for tattoos. On his back neck and behind his right ear, there is a wing engraved that resembles his flying spirit. However, that is not it. The personality of the Brazilian left-back is perfectly displayed in words on his left hand as the words ‘Carpe Diem’ is placed there. If his playing style is anything to go by, he is someone who loves to seize the day.

He has an angel on his back and a cross on his right arm, in a display that depicts his firm religious beliefs. Further up on his biceps, there is a tattoo of Jesus Christ. On his lower belly, he has engraved the name of his son, Enzo. Finally, at the top of his spinal cord, one could see the letters ‘M12’ embedded. The meaning of this tattoo is relatively straightforward, the M stands for Marcelo and 12 is his jersey number with the Blancos.
