Hannover complete Brazilian defender Marcelo switch

11 August 2013 - 15:41

Bundesliga side Hannover have completed the signing of Brazilian center back Marcelo from PSV Eindhoven on a four year deal for an undisclosed fee.

  • Dutch star undergoing his medical at Chelsea
  • Chelsea's deal to sign RB Leipzig midfielder falls through

  • The tall center half was a regular for the Eredivisie club and makes his move to the AWD Arena after spending three years at the Dutch club.



    The former Brazil U 20 international is scheduled to participate in his first training session with his new team mates on Tuesday.



    Hannover coach Mirko Slomka told the club's official website: "Marcelo was a regular starter at PSV Eindhoven and has the qualities that you look for in a modern-day central defender: consistent tackling, physical presence and good play from the back.



    "He also impressed during the friendly match in the HDI Arena a few weeks ago. I'm delighted he's decided to join 96."
