Dewa United Unveils Osmar Loss as New Head Coach Ahead of Ambitious 2026/27 Campaign

Dewa United Banten FC has officially appointed Brazilian coach Osmar Loss as the team's new head coach for the 2026/27 BRI Super League season. The club believes his arrival will strengthen the squad and help maintain its competitive edge as it aims for greater success in one of Indonesia's toughest football competitions.

Loss joins Dewa United with an impressive coaching résumé built across several countries. He previously guided Buriram United to a remarkable quadruple-winning campaign in Thailand and also led Persepolis FC to league success in Iran. During his official introduction at Dewa United Arena in Tangerang, he expressed admiration for the club's modern facilities, long-term vision, and the welcoming atmosphere created by the players and staff.

Despite his extensive experience, the Brazilian coach made it clear that he has no intention of changing the team's established style of play. Instead, he plans to strengthen the existing foundation while improving consistency, teamwork, and the overall mentality of the squad to build a stronger winning culture.

Loss also acknowledged the growing expectations surrounding Dewa United following the club's steady progress in recent seasons. Holding a CONMEBOL Pro coaching license, he believes the team is capable of meeting those expectations and is prepared to embrace the challenges that come with leading one of the league's ambitious clubs.

As preparations for the new campaign begin, Loss has encouraged supporters to continue backing the team from the stands throughout the season. His appointment signals a fresh chapter for Dewa United, with renewed optimism that the club can transform its ambitions into meaningful achievements in the upcoming Super League season.
