Remo terminated Alef Manga’s contract after a new disciplinary incident. The forward had been removed from the squad after arguing with Marllon, the team captain, in the 2-1 loss to Santos last Saturday, the 19th, at Mangueirão, in the second round of the Brazilian Championship.

RTI Esporte Agency has learned that the termination was approved by Thiago Carpini. The argument took place near the end of the match and continued after the final whistle. Manga’s behavior had already been internally regarded as a problem.

Given the situation, the club’s board chose to immediately end the forward’s time at the club. The termination comes right at the start of Thiago Carpini’s tenure, as he took over Remo amid pressure both on and off the pitch.

The incident with Marllon was decisive

The argument with Marllon ended up being the episode that sped up Alef Manga’s departure. The center-back serves as captain and is part of the leadership group in Remo’s squad. After the loss to Santos, the board assessed the situation and decided to remove the forward from the team.

Thiago Carpini approved the decision and will now have one less option to work with in attack. The coach made his debut precisely against Santos and found a team on a negative run, with five straight defeats and nearly two months without a win.

Alef Manga’s departure, therefore, comes at a time of internal restructuring. Remo is looking to reorganize the squad and stop its run of negative results in the final stretch of the Brazilian Championship.

Alef Manga’s numbers in 2026

Alef Manga leaves Remo after playing 40 matches this season. The forward scored six goals and provided one assist during that period. In Brazil’s Serie A, he made 28 appearances, scored five goals, and recorded three assists.

The striker was Remo’s second-highest scorer in the Brasileirão and had been used frequently by the team. Despite his attacking contribution, the forward ends his spell at the club after another disciplinary incident.
