Legendary Real Madrid defender Marcelo is set to leave the club after almost 15 years of service for the Spanish giants.
The Brazilian's contract is set to expire next June, and Spanish outlet Olé reports that there have been no renewals talks between the club and player.
Marcelo is expected to return to Fluminense at the end of his current deal, after leaving the Rio de Janeiro outfit in January 2007 to join Los Blancos.

The 33-year-old has enjoyed a trophy-laden spell with Real, which includes five La Liga titles and four Champions Leagues.
His personal stats are equally impressive, with 533 appearances to his name at the time of writing, scoring 38 goals and registering an astonishing 101 assists during that time.
But those glory days seem to be consigned to the past, and Marcelo's days at the Bernabeu appear to be numbered.

The full-back is still the club captain, but has been restricted to just five appearances across all competitions this season. His only La Liga start this campaign came in a 2-1 win away at Elche on 30th October.
For now, Marcelo's focus will be on gaining more game time with Real, when they host Inter Milan in the Champions League tonight.
Los Blancos head into their final group stages match having already secured their place in the last-16, but know that a point will enough to claim top spot and a supposedly more favourable draw in the knockout stages.
The big games continue to come thick and fast for Carlo Ancelotti's side, who host Atletico Madrid in a tantalising La Liga clash on Sunday.

Real are top of the table and 10 points ahead of fourth-place Atletico, but Diego Simeone's side do have a game in hand over their city rivals.
