In a statement, the club said it tried to convince the coach to continue guiding the team, but there was no will.
"The management of Maquis still tried to persuade him of his decision, but without success, and for the fact the club thanks the commitment and dedication of this and only teacher, who achieved the best classification ever in the Moxico association, reaching third place at Girabola, in 2013", it reads.
A technical commission led by physical trainer Afonso Paxe Filho will guide the team over the next few years, until another coach is found.
In the current edition of Girabola, Bravos do Maquis, in seven rounds, have not yet won any game, lost four and drawn two.
