Remo’s 2025 season summary

Before diving into Remo’s 2025 campaign, it is worth revisiting the club’s recent history. In 2020, the team earned promotion to Série B, which they contested in 2021, but were relegated in the same year. The Pará side remained in Série C until 2024, when they returned to the second division after finishing 2nd in the second phase. As a result, their new stint in Série B was quicker and far more productive.

Remo went unbeaten until the 9th round of Série B, with four wins and two draws. Their first defeat came in early June, followed by a win and two losses.

The team maintained a rhythm of wins, draws and spaced-out defeats. However, the Leão truly hit their stride from the 29th round onward, going on a winning run through to the 34th round. Just one point separated Clube do Remo from Criciúma in the promotion race, with the Pará side finishing with 62 points.

In addition to the Brazilian Championship, Remo competed in the Copa do Brasil, Copa Verde and Campeonato Paraense. In the national knockout competition, they were eliminated in the second round. In the regional tournament, they also exited early, on penalties. The trophy they lifted in 2025 was the state championship.

What does Remo’s squad look like in 2026?

A promotion is always accompanied by squad changes. Key players stay and renew contracts, others receive offers from different clubs, and reinforcements are brought in to reach the required level in the new competition. The same applies to Remo.

Remo’s 2026 squad is:

• Goalkeepers: Marcelo Rangel (37), João Victor (20) and Ygor Vinhas (31)
• Center-backs: Reynaldo (29), Kayky Almeida (20), Thalisson (24), Marllon (33), Cristian Tassano (29), Léo Andrade (27), Klaus (32) and Kawan (22)
• Full-backs: Sávio (30), Marcelinho (27), Jorge (29) and João Lucas (27)
• Defensive midfielders: Patrick de Paula (26), Víctor Cantillo (32), Panagiotis Tachtsidis (34), Zé Ricardo (26) and Freitas (22)
• Midfielders: Patrick (33), Giovanni Pavani (29), Nathan (29), Yago Ferreira (24) and Régis Salmazo (33)
• Forwards: Diego Hernández (25), Nicolás Ferreira (23), Alef Manga (31), Jáderson (25), Dodô (31), Yago Pikachu (33), Marrony (26), Carlinhos (28), Rafael Monti (26), João Pedro (29) and Eduardo Melo (24)

Remo squad changes in 2026

The most notable departure this season was forward Pedro Rocha. He made 44 appearances and scored 19 goals for Remo in 2025 and, after his contract expired, moved to Coritiba. Defensive midfielder Caio Vinícius also left the Azulino side, heading to Chinese club Yunnan Yukun.

Among the reinforcements, Remo focused on free signings and loan deals. One of them is Argentine striker Rafael Monti, arriving from Ecuadorian side Vinotinto. However, perhaps the signing that most caught the fans’ attention was forward Yago Pikachu. A product of rivals Paysandu, he left Pará football in 2016 and returns a decade later after spells with Vasco and Fortaleza.

On the touchline, the club also welcomed Colombian coach Juan Carlos Osorio, who previously managed the national teams of Mexico and Paraguay. In Brazilian football, Osorio coached São Paulo and Athletico-PR.

In attack, the highest-valued player is Uruguayan Diego Hernández. He is also contracted to Botafogo and will represent the Pará club this season, with a market value of €1.8 million.
