Felgueiras Clint began his professional career in
Portugal in 1995 with
Felgueiras and made 21 appearances for the club in his first season. After the end of the 1994–95 campaign, Marcelle opted for a transfer and he moved across Europe to join
Barnsley.
Barnsley Marcelle signed a contract with Barnsley who were playing in the
First Division. He scored on his debut against
West Bromwich Albion,{{cite news
Hull City Despite other offers Marcelle decided to remain in
Yorkshire and sign with rivals
Hull City in 2000. City at the time were at the lower breaches of the professional football system in England and were playing in the
Third Division. Despite dropping down two league's this failed to help Marcelle and his time at
Boothferry Park was not long lived. After a handful of games he was released at the end of the season and a move up north to join up with fellow Third Division rivals
Darlington.
Darlington He remained at Darlington for the entire 2001–02 season, making 10 appearances and scored no goals. Without surprise, he was amongst the players that the club let go in the summer. Following a long summer spell and with limited interest about his services in the professional leagues of England, Marcelle opted to drop out of the professional leagues.
Harrogate Town Following his release from Darlington, he joined up with semi-professional
Conference North outfit
Harrogate Town, with the Yorkshire club giving Marcelle a short-term deal. He was to remain with Harrogate until December 2002, when he was released from the club after a fruitless five-month spell.
Hucknall Town His next port of call was to sign another short-term contract with another semi-professional club, this time moving to
Nottinghamshire outfit
Hucknall Town. Marcelle would see out the rest of the 2002–03 campaign with Hucknall before leaving at the end of the season.
Stevenage Borough In July it was announced that Marcelle would move up a league to the
Conference National and join
Stevenage Borough, who also gave him a short term playing contract. Marcelle would only make three appearances for Borough, all of them coming on as a substitute and after two months of football with the club, Stevenage decided to let him leave.
Scarborough After initially struggling to find a new club he was eventually signed by
Russell Slade at cash strapped
Scarborough. For a brief moment, Marcelle found some consistent form and during his time with the Seadogs, he helped the club on their impressive
FA Cup run which saw with them defeat
Port Vale amongst others before finally hosting
Cheslea at the
McCain Stadium. Chelsea were able to out power Scarborough, but only just. A goal from
John Terry was the only goal in the game, in which Marcelle played the entire 90 minutes. Marcelle went on to chalk up over 30 appearances with the club, but left the club at the end of the season, with his contract expired, Scarborough were more tangled up in searching for a manager to replace the departed Russell Slade.
Grimsby Town In a reward for his consistency in the previous season, Slade contacted Marcelle again and was invited for a pre-season trial with his new club
Grimsby Town. Following a trial month, in which Marcelle never really got a look in, in any of the teams friendly games, he was still offered a short-term deal and joined
Ashley Sestanovich and
Glen Downey as one of three players taken to
Blundell Park from his former club. Grimsby was to be his first professional football club in two years. Despite being offered a contract, Marcelle found it extremely hard to break into the team and was often looked past in favour for
Michael Reddy,
Andy Parkinson and
Darren Mansaram, and would often find it very difficult on winning a place on the substitute bench. Marcelle made his only start for the Mariners against
Carlisle United in the
Football League Trophy, and following only four other sub appearances, Marcelle would not play again for Grimsby. Slade decided to bring in two more strikers in
Martin Gritton and
Colin Cramb, and that coupled with loan signings such as
Jon Daly and
Chris Williams, Marcelle was eventually released by Grimsby on 31 October 2004.
Tamworth Marcelle would find it extremely hard to find a new club, and it wasn't until March that he finally signed with a new club. Following an impressive trial he joined Conference side
Tamworth who gave Marcelle a contract until the end of the 2004–05 season. He went on to make nine appearances for Tamworth and was released at the end of the season.
Gainsborough Trinity After training with several non-League clubs in the summer of 2005, Marcelle was given a short-term contract by
Gainsborough Trinity, but after a few games at
The Northolme he was unable to dislodge
Dave Reeves and
Jonathan Rowan as the first choice attacking force available to manager Paul Mitchell. It was not long before Trinity would release him.
Armthorpe Welfare Upon leaving Trinity, he dropped even further down the English league system to sign with
Armthorpe Welfare. He would play a brief part for the club, but notably formed a short strike partnership with
David Soames, who he had played with at Grimsby. Marcelle left Armthorpe by
mutual consent before the close of the 2005–06 season. He subsequently retired from playing therefore after. ==Managerial career==
