Psychologist Djara Fortes and nutritionist Mariana Lindenberg are joining the Women’s Academy at the U-15, U-17, and U-20 levels.
Djara’s professional background includes a degree in Psychology, a postgraduate qualification in Sports Psychology, and 10 years working with Corinthians’ professional women’s team.

“This is an opportunity to be part of a great institution, with history, tradition, and significance in Brazilian football. It is a new professional challenge that allows me to contribute through what I believe in: the development of the athlete and the individual. I also hope to help build an increasingly healthy, safe, and supportive environment for development, and to leave behind consistent work that strengthens people, relationships, and career paths,” said the psychologist.
Mariana holds a degree in Nutrition, a Master’s degree in Sciences from USP, and is a Specialist in Sports Nutrition. She also has a degree in Physical Education and 16 years of teaching experience in the field.
“Working at São Paulo is a great responsibility. I feel prepared, because I studied and worked very hard to reach this moment, and I am very happy and proud of this opportunity. I hope to build a relationship of respect and trust with the athletes, coaching staff, and management, as well as carry out assessments and interventions whenever necessary to achieve the highest level of performance that the shirt and the importance of the club demand,” said the professional.
