Marcelo snubs Leicester City and joins Olympiacos

Former Real Madrid left-back Marcelo has joined the Greek club, Olympiacos, after being linked with a deadline day move to Leicester City.

The highly-decorated Brazilian left Real Madrid as a free agent at the end of last season after a trophy-laden spell at the club.

Reports linked several clubs with a move for him and Leicester reportedly wanted to add him to their squad before the window shut.

However, the full-back has now moved to the Greek Super League where he is expected to continue for at least a season, Matchplug understands.

Marcelo is one of the world’s most recognised full-backs and he was in stunning form for Madrid and the Brazilian national team for over a decade.

He would now look to add some more trophies to his name at Olympiacos, where he would be teammates with former Arsenal man, Sokratis.

Crystal Palace prepared to pay £20million for Gallagher

Crystal Palace is refusing to give up on signing Conor Gallagher from Chelsea even though the Blues rejected their offers for his signature this summer.

The midfielder spent last season on loan at Selhurst Park and he was one of the best players in his position in the Premier League.

His form for the Eagles even earned him a place in the England national team and he will be keen to feature at the World Cup.

Chelsea refused to sell him this summer despite interest from Palace and Everton and they expect him to become a key member of their squad.

The midfielder will, however, face competition from several players to play at Stamford Bridge and Palace would be waiting to pounce and sign him.

Matchplug understands that they will offer £20million – plus add-ons for his signature in the January transfer window if he does not cement a place in the Chelsea first team in this first half of the campaign.

The midfielder might love the idea of moving to Patrick Vieira’s side after enjoying his time with them last season.

Nice vs AS Monaco Match Preview

This Derby de la Côte d’Azur sees two clubs in the same region with contrasting fortunes at this beginning of the season square up against each other.

Nice finally won their first league game of the season by beating Lille in their last match, with Nicolas Pepe scoring.

The Arsenal loanee is an important addition to their squad and he would need to be in top shape to help them achieve success in this campaign.

Monaco has made a terrible start to this campaign and their form has worsened since they lost their Champions League qualifying match to PSV.

They have no win and three losses from their last five matches in all competition and will want to end this dreadful run of form in this fixture.

Troyes beat them at home the last time, but they had almost beaten PSG in the previous game, ending it in a 1-1 draw in Paris.

If they perform that well here, they could get the win, but Nice also know they cannot lose to their crosstown rivals.

Monaco has won four and lost none of the last five head to head records in this fixture.

Udinese vs AS Roma Match Preview

AS Roma visits Udinese in this fixture hoping to earn all three points and head back to the top of the Serie A table.

Jose Mourinho’s side has started this season well and Paulo Dybala has started scoring, suggesting that there is more good things to come.

Roma has 10 points from four matches. If they win this game, they will move 2 points clear at the top of the Serie A table.

The Giallorossi know the importance of a win in this match, but they cannot underestimate their hosts, Udinese.

The Zebras have been in fine form on the league in recent weeks, winning their last two fixtures and they will be keen to add another win here.

They are unbeaten in three games, but Roma will be their most high-profile opponent since the start of this run, so they are in for a tough test.

Roma will want to maintain their early lead at the top to keep their fans dreaming of a title win.
