Judged on this season alone, Marllon graded 27 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 30th of 68 of the 68 centre-backs in the Serie A, on 7 clean sheets and 2.327 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 38 → 27). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 21, 60th of 68 of the 68 centre-backs in the Serie A. At 34 Marllon is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.9 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Ceara finished 17th of 20 · a lower-table side
2.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 25 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 20) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 63.9% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
Watch points
- Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 20.5, Marllon carries the 60th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Serie A of 68, and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Ceara finished 17th of 20) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.33 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
