Council president sets vote date on possible Corinthians expulsions | OneFootball

The president of Corinthians’ Deliberative Council, Romeu Tuma Jr, has defined how the sessions that will review disciplinary proceedings involving club members and councilors will be divided. According to an order obtained by Central do Timão, the measure was adopted due to the “complexity of the agenda submitted for the collegiate body’s consideration” and the number of cases under discussion, ensuring, according to the document, the “proper exercise of adversarial proceedings and full defense rights.”

In the first session, the cases of Mario Mello Junior, Manoel Ramos Evangelista, known as Mané da Carne, and Marcelo Mariano will be reviewed. See the details below:

Mario Mello Junior’s case had been scheduled to be reviewed on June 8, but it was ultimately postponed for medical reasons. Now, the councilor’s appeal will be considered before the vote on the opinion of the Ethics and Discipline Committee, which recommends his expulsion. The punishment is related to the events of May 31, 2025, when members and councilors linked to former president Augusto Melo invaded Parque São Jorge in an attempt to reinstate him to office.

Mané da Carne and Marcelo Mariano, meanwhile, will have their cases reviewed without the reading of an appeal, since both missed the deadline to file the request. Mané is facing a complaint involving threats of physical aggression and racial slurs against other Corinthians councilors. Marcelo Mariano, in turn, is under investigation as a result of the VaideBet case and is listed as a defendant in the São Paulo courts.

For the session scheduled for the 10th, the order of judgments includes the cases of Claudinei Alves, Valmir Costa, and Paulo Cesar de Andrade Prado.

Claudinei and Valmir, who were part of the youth academy management during Augusto Melo’s term, were removed from the membership roster because of the episodes that occurred on May 31. However, both obtained a stay granted by the president of the Deliberative Council, Romeu Tuma Júnior, and will have their appeals reviewed against the opinion recommending that the penalty be upheld.

In the case of Paulo Cesar de Andrade Prado, the Associates’ Ethics Committee issued an opinion favorable to his readmission to the club’s membership, also recommending his return to Parque São Jorge.

The order also provides that the first session may resume on a later date if there is not enough time to conclude all proceedings. The document also determines that only those involved in each case and the councilors eligible to vote may remain in the chamber during deliberations.
