Ferdinand Omanyala, Africa’s fastest man who represented Kenya in the Olympics 100 meters might be proud of Marcelo’s speeds.Coincidentally, Amin Sarr who set the fastest speeds in the league did so when his side Mjällby AIF played against Marcelo’s AIK.Erick Ouma Otieno: Mål och assist i Allsvenskan 2021 pic.twitter.com/fl05F3EpDD— discovery+ sport 🇸🇪 (@dplus_sportSE) December 20, 2021 Aside from speed, Marcelo also covered the most ground at AIK as he ran 269,510 meters in the entire season as he marauded up and down the right channel.With the impressive stats, it will not come as a surprise if bigger clubs come knocking for Marcelo’s signature as he has been linked with Atalanta, Rubin Kazan, Wolfsburg and Crystal Palace previously reported to be interesting in him.
