Viva! Bravo! (1986) is Menudo's 20th album. It is the band's only album in Italian.
It features Charlie Massó, Robby Rosa, Ricky Martin, Raymond Acevedo, and new member Sergio Gonzalez. Sergio replaced Roy Rosselló. According to a book written by Raymond Acevedo's father in 2012 titled "Papi, Quiero Ser Un Menudo," Roy threatened to expose management irregularities to the press and was given a huge sum of money to leave the group due to his behavior as it was deemed by creator Edgardo Diaz as "uncontrollable." At this time, Menudo's management started bending the rules and started allowing members to remain in the group after reaching the age limit. This album contains songs from previous Spanish albums translated to Italian.
