To his twenty-one years and after adding more than 70 parties with the Fluminense in the hottest stadiums "" of the World as they are the ones of the Brazilian League, Marlon Santos accepted the challenge that put him the Barça. With humility went down two categories to put to the service of the Barça B, in his fight by the promotion. In passing it was adding to his big repertoire concepts futbolísticos "made in" FC Barcelona. And the result? A partidazo in his debut in League with the first team.
It was summoned in front of the UD The Palms given the numerous absences in defence that had the Barcelona. The same sucedió with his titularity, a misfortune of Mascherano did him go out of the game. And from the beginning, and in front of the councils of Luis Enrique from the band, Marlon cuajó a perfect party.
The anthological numbers of Marlon in The Palms
The numbers that left endorse it, this is like this. As in a key appearance for the game culé, the one of the passes and the exit aseada from backwards, the defender obtained 94,25% of tarpaulin. Or what is the same, an authentic atrocity in the 82 passes of the 87 that tried.
But it does not remain here the thing as it touched more the ball that his mate Umtiti. It was in 95 occasions, by fifteen more than the French and 25 more than Jordi Alba, finish like the defence that more took part during all the party. Besides, in defence was a colossus and won 75% of the duels that had.
All this feeds the good flavour of mouth that technical, mates and fans had after seeing him debut with the casaca culé in the domestic competition. It seems that there is defence for years in the team if it follows puliendo.
