Paulo César, 46, has been officially appointed head coach of the Paris Saint-Germain women’s team, according to the club’s official website. A former player and emblematic figure for PSG, he succeeds Fabrice Abriel in a key position in a context of transition, with the stated ambition of raising the Red and Blue colors to the top. He spoke to the PSG website.
Paulo Cesar “Being appointed head coach of the Paris Saint-Germain women’s team is a huge honor”.
“Being appointed head coach of the Paris Saint-Germain women’s team is a huge honor and the fulfillment of a goal I’ve been pursuing for several years. I am deeply attached to this Club, to its values and to this section that I have seen grow. It is with great enthusiasm and determination that I take on this responsibility today. I will devote all my energy and experience to this magnificent project, to help the team continue to progress and to fly the Red and Blue colors.”
Paulo César’s arrival at the helm of Paris Saint-Germain’s women’s section marks a strategic turning point for the capital club. After accompanying the growth of the section as an assistant, the 46-year-old Brazilian technician has now inherited an ambitious mission: to give a new impetus to a team in search of major titles.
His deep-rooted attachment to PSG, forged during his time as a player and then as a member of the staff, is coupled with an intimate knowledge of the dressing room and the club’s values. This choice is in line with the desire to reinforce the Parisian identity and to rely on a respected figure, capable of federating a young and talented group.
The challenge will be considerable: to compete with OL and impose themselves on the European scene, while continuing to develop the young talent trained at the club. For Paulo César, this appointment represents the culmination of a career patiently built up within PSG, and the opportunity to prove his worth at the head of an ambitious project.
