Costa Rica Liga De Ascenso: Óscar Rojas Takes the Helm at Cofutpa Palmares

Former Costa Rican player Óscar Emilio Rojas has taken on a new challenge as the head coach of Cofutpa Palmares in the Liga de Ascenso. The 28-year-old footballer, who started his career with Cofutpa Palmares, will be leading the team for the remainder of the Torneo de Apertura 2026.

Rojas began his tenure at Palmares last weekend by observing from a distance as his team secured a 3-1 victory over Santa Cruz PFA. He is expected to officially register with the Liga de Ascenso in the coming days, allowing him to take charge of the team on the sidelines for their next match.

Roger Sosa, Palmares’ sports manager, confirmed that Rojas had reached an agreement with the club and would be assisted by Sosa himself, who will alternate between his role as sports manager and assistant coach.

Rojas’ appointment has generated excitement among fans, who are eager to see what he can bring to the team. With his experience and passion for the sport, Rojas is poised to make a significant impact in the Liga de Ascenso.
