Marvin Kaleta, born in England on 14 September 2004, is a stalwart figure in defence, primarily plugging the gap as a right back for Motherwell. Despite being just 20 years of age, his 1.8m (5ft 10in) frame and weight of 74kg (11st 9lb) lend him a rather imposing presence on the pitch. Tradition holds firm with Kaleta, who proudly dons the number 21 jersey.
Given his unyielding display of mettle on the proverbial battlefields of football, Kaleta has managed to amass a market value in the ballpark of €200k. Ostensibly a fairly modest sum, but it's still a testament to his value on the field. This figure is according to Transfermarkt, which pegs his worth in British pounds at a humble yet hard-earned sum of £170k. Kaleta's contract at Motherwell is on the clock though, scheduled to expire after only 4 more months, on 31 May 2025.
For Kaleta, his journey to Motherwell was routed through the grand amphitheatres of English football. Cutting his teeth as a trainee, Kaleta joined Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League in July 2020, where he spent several invaluable years honing his skills. By July 2024, Kaleta made the voyage northwards to Motherwell in Scotland's Premiership, marking a significant milestone in his burgeoning career.
So far, his experience at Motherwell has seen him participate in League Cup 2024 - 2025 and Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025. In both instances, our man Kaleta made sure his presence was felt, with one start and three appearances as a substitute in the League Cup, and another start in the Scottish Cup.
