Mônica Angélica de Paula (born 4 April 1978), or simply Mônica, is a Brazilian footballer. She currently plays as a defender for Brazil's Botucatu FC. She was a member of the Brazilian National Team that won the silver medal at the 2004 Summer Olympics.

Born in São Paulo, Mônica only began playing football in 1999.

In her pro career, she also played for São Paulo, Matonense and Araraquara.^[1]^[2]
