Rosana Augusto takes charge of Palmeiras women's team: 'I'll give my all'

Coach Rosana Augusto officially took charge of the women's team at Palmeiras this Tuesday (21). The coach was introduced at the Football Academy and had her first interactions with the technical staff and the athletes, who did a regenerative training session at the venue after the unprecedented title win of the Brazil Ladies Cup.

“What brought me here was understanding the current position of Palmeiras, always reaching the final stages of competitions, having athletes with high technical quality, and having a female president who supports and understands the female side. Additionally, the trust in my work, which Alberto (Simão, executive director of women's football) has constantly shown, and the gradual structuring taking place. It's a very sustainable project, standing out in signings, aiming for integration with the youth categories, the construction of a Center of Excellence, and all of this impacts on the field,” emphasized the new coach of the Palestrinas.

Awarded as a FIFA legend while an athlete, Rosana is 43 years old and hails from São Paulo-SP. With a recent but successful career as a coach, she has already won the following tournaments: Women's Rio Cup (2025), South American U-20 Championship (2024), Brazilian Women's A2 (2023), and Paranaense Championship (2021). The professional highlighted the warm reception and the technical quality of the Palestrinas:

“It was a very good and pleasant reception, especially since I played with many of them and also coached many of them. I was very well received! I see a very qualified team with incredible potential to continue this culture of reaching finals. I have little time to work for the next game, but I believe something can be implemented. I am a very intense person, who puts love into everything I do, and that's what I want to pass on to the group: the pride they should have in wearing a jersey of this magnitude, but above all, respecting the history of women's football and leaving a legacy for future generations,” said Rosana.

Motivated and happy with the new challenge, the coach also reaffirmed her desire to have maximum interaction with the board, the technical staff, and the athletes.

“I want to share with the staff, the board, the athletes, and do the best for the group. I really like a transdisciplinary team, where everyone contributes and feels important and valued within the process. My duty is to offer the greatest number of possibilities and tools possible, so they can choose the best ones according to what they deem necessary at a given moment. I will give my best in everything and hope to contribute so that the fans have an even greater connection with the women's team,” concludes the coach.

Rosana's debut will be on October 31, at 9 PM, against Red Bull Bragantino, at Arena Crefisa Barueri, for the first phase of the Paulista Feminino.
