Argentine coach Martín Palermo is on the radar of Remo club, which is considering him for the head coach position. Remo is preparing for its return to the Brazilian Serie A. The club is considering Palermo after his recent departure from Fortaleza, with which he was relegated but left a competitive impression at the end of the season. Palermo took over Fortaleza in a critical situation, replacing his compatriot Juan Pablo Vojvoda, and was close to achieving permanence. After a start of three wins and four losses, he secured a key 1-0 victory over Flamengo (the eventual tournament champion and Copa Libertadores winner) and then went nine games unbeaten, with four consecutive draws and four wins in a row. The decision came on the final matchday, with a 4-2 loss to Botafogo that condemned the team to relegation when they still had mathematical chances of salvation. Meanwhile, Remo had a solid campaign in Serie B, finishing fourth with 62 points in 38 matches (16 wins, 14 draws, 8 losses) and earning promotion to the Brasileirão behind Coritiba, Athletico Paranaense, and Chapecoense. The club will be participating in the top tier for the sixteenth time, with its best historical record being an eighth place in 1993.
