Paulo Nobre (born 24 February 1968) is a Brazilian lawyer, rally driver and former president of Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras.
Palmeiras
=Election=
Paulo Nobre had the support of former Presidents Mustafa Contursi and Carlos Bernardo Facchina Nunes to be elected president of Palmeiras. He had a major campaign promise, "management shock" at Palmeiras for the traditional club of Brazilian football. Which was for the administration to be more modern and less troubled than the years before his election.
On November 29, 2014 was re-elected after winning the opposition Wlademir Pescarmona, the first president in the history of Palmeiras to be elected directly
=Projects as a President=
One of the main Nobre goals is to transform the Palmeiras marketing. Therefore, in addition, the new president wants to professionalize the football department of the club by hiring a gerentão. The name hired for this function is that of José Carlos Brunoro, which in the mid 1990 successfully passed for Palmeiras at the height of the partnership with the Italian multinational Parmalat, which was managing Audax from São Paulo. Thus, besides being able to hire better caliber reinforcements, Nobre intends to stop the heavy debt of around R$293 million. That way, he will enter the twenty-first century, a century in which, according to the president, the club has not yet entered.
