Marcelo José Bordon (born 7 January 1976) is a former Brazilian professional footballer who played as a centre-back. He is best known for his time with Bundesliga sides VfB Stuttgart and Schalke 04, as well as being part of the 2004 Copa América-winning Brazil squad.

His son, Filipe Bordon, plays in the same position as him for FC Südtirol, on loan from Lazio.

Career

[edit]

Born in Ribeirão Preto, Bordon spent six years at Schalke between 2004 and July 2010,[1] having been acquired from Stuttgart on a €2.6 million deal. He formed a formidable defensive partnership with Serbian Mladen Krstajić, boasting formidable aerial ability and leadership that earned him the captain's armband from the 2006–07 season until the summer of 2010. On 5 July 2010, Bordon left Schalke[2] and signed for Al-Rayyan in Qatar three days later,[3] earning approximately €6.5 million per year before retiring once his contract expired.

Bordon briefly served as head coach of Rio Branco-SP in 2016.[4]
