Real Madrid legend Marcelo has mocked a Valencia defender following a heated encounter at Mestalla, according to reports from Madrid Universal.

The incident occurred during a recent La Liga fixture between Valencia and Real Madrid at the Mestalla stadium. Details of the specific exchange remain unclear, but the Brazilian left-back, who spent 15 years at Real Madrid, reportedly directed taunts toward an opposition player after the match.

Marcelo, 38, retired from professional football in 2024 but remains a prominent figure in the sport. The former Brazil international won 25 major trophies with Real Madrid, including five UEFA Champions League titles.

Valencia have not yet issued an official statement regarding the incident. The Spanish football federation may review the matter if a formal complaint is lodged.
