Marcos Braz had a disagreement with Remo’s president and is rumored to join São Paulo

After a little less than a year as a football executive, former Flamengo member Marcos Braz announced his departure from Remo on Sunday (25). Therefore, the former vice president of Flamengo is now a free agent before the start of the Brasileirão.

— Perhaps the word DEPARTURE isn’t even the best one at this moment, because even from afar, I will be helping and cheering for the best results. Through the same door I entered, I say goodbye and leave with my head held high, grateful for the trust and friendships built —, announced Marcos Braz, adding that:

— Remo is huge, and there are still many good things to come. May 2026 be victorious for Leão, now back where it should have never left —, stated the executive, who left Flamengo in 2024.

Why is the former Flamengo executive leaving Remo?

Braz’s departure comes after disagreements with president Antônio Carlos Teixeira, known as Tonhão. Furthermore, the former Flamengo executive is rumored to take over at São Paulo, which has a vacant position following Muricy Ramalho’s departure.

Since when has Braz been at Remo?

Marcos Braz joined Remo on May 31, 2025. He then led the rebuilding of the squad during Série B, which resulted in the club’s promotion to Série A of the Brazilian Championship, a competition the club hadn’t played in since 1994.

When is Flamengo’s next match?

Without Marcos Braz, Flamengo will take the field this Wednesday (28) to face São Paulo, in the first round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The match kicks off at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Morumbi.
