Real Madrid are reportedly giving consideration to handing Marcelo a new contract after the defender said that he wanted to remain at the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid are reportedly open to handing a new contract to long-serving defender Marcelo.

For a number of months, it has been deemed inevitable that the 33-year-old would end his legendary career at the Santiago Bernabeu, one which started all the way back in 2007, when his deal expired in the summer.

Speculation persists that Los Blancos are on the lookout for a younger replacement with a return for Tottenham Hotspur's Sergio Reguilon seemingly the most likely option.

However, according to reports in Spain, the newly-crowned La Liga champions are given consideration to extending the Brazilian's deal by another 12 months.

Although Marcelo is now very much second-choice behind Ferland Mendy, he is said to have told club officials of his preference to stay at Real.

Marcelo has made just five starts in Spain's top flight this campaign, one of them coming at the weekend as Real wrapped up the title with a 4-0 victory over Espanyol. body check tags ::
