Stefane Pereira Rosa (born 12 May 1999), simply known as Stefane, is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Santos.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Rio de Janeiro, Stefane played for local side Team Chicago Brasil as a youth before making her senior debut with Vitória das Tabocas in 2017. On 20 March 2018, she and her sister moved to Flamengo.[4]

Stefane joined Internacional ahead of the 2019 season, but moved to the United States and joined Monroe College's Monroe Mustangs.[2] In 2020, amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, she returned to Brazil and played for Iranduba,[5] 3B da Amazônia[6] and Real Brasília[7] before returning to the Mustangs in 2021.[2]

After an impressive 2021 season, Stefane was included in the NSCAA Women's Division I All-American First Team of the season.[8] She then joined Nova Southeastern University's Nova Southeastern Sharks for the 2022 campaign,[3] and also played eight USL W League matches for AFC Ann Arbor,[9] having joined the side on 7 March 2022.[10]

On 2 July 2024, Stefane returned to her home country and signed a contract with Santos until December 2025.[11]

International career

[edit]

Stefane was called up to the Brazil national under-17 team for the 2016 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, but was a backup option. She was also second-choice with the under-20s in the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup, before receiving a call-up to the full side in August 2017, as coach Emily Lima only called up players from the Northeast Region for a period of trainings.[12][13]

Personal life

Andressa's twin sister Andressa is also a footballer who plays as a centre-back. Both played together at Vitória and Flamengo.[14]
