Carlos Marinelli (born March 14 1982 in Villa de Mayo, Buenos Aires) is an Argentine footballer who was a member of Club Deportivo Los Millonarios of Colombia 2009 roster.
He started off his career with Boca Juniors where he played until 1999 when Middlesbrough F.C. signed him for £1.5 million. He was billed as the new Maradona[1] but he scored just four times against Derby County (twice),[2] Fulham[3] and Brentford in the League Cup.[4] He generally failed to live up to expectations and left the Riverside Stadium in 2003 to sign for Torino F.C. During the 2005-06 season, he joined Portuguese side SC Braga on a transfer, playing until the end of that season. In 2007, he joined the Kansas City Wizards [5].
Marinelli spent two seasons with the Wizards, but struggled in his time there. He was eventually waived by the club at the end of the 2008 season. He later took a big step in his career by signing for one of the most important clubs in South America Millonarios de Bogota.
However, Marinelli's poor attitude off the field, as well as his red cards and lack of goals on the field, made him a bad signing. Twelve games into the Copa Mustang I 2009, he was released by Millonarios along with four other under-productive players. [6]
