Biography
Mario Melchiot is a defender for Wigan Athletic in the English Premier League. Melchiot can play in the centre of defence, but is usually deployed as a right-back, where his forays forward have become a trademark. As the only Wigan player to ply in a major international tournament, Melchiot was handed the captaincy, and has responded to it by giving nothing but exceptional performances. Melchiot was in the Dutch Euro 2008 team, but seems to have fallen out of favour now that younger blood is coming through.
