Amazonas FC “broke new ground” by officially announcing the termination of center-back Léo Coelho’s contract after he had taken the club to court.
In addition to the message announcing the end of the deal, the current 14th-placed team in Série C posted a video of the 33-year-old defender’s “worst moments.”

There are five clips in which Léo Coelho ends up “helping out” during opponents’ attacks.
The player is seeking around R$ 8 million from the Manaus-based club over unpaid wages.
After spells with Uruguayan giants Nacional and Peñarol, he joined Amazonas in August last year.
Since then, he has made 39 appearances, scoring two goals and providing one assist.
The post announcing the termination and the video of the plays were published on the club’s official Instagram account.
Léo Coelho came through at Nacional, a club in the capital of São Paulo state, and also had spells abroad with Fénix (URU) and Atlético San Luiz (MEX).
