AC Monza Takeover: American Owners Arrive! What's Next?
The buzz is building around AC Monza! American investment firm Beckett Layne Ventures has officially touched down in Italy, signaling a new era for the Serie B club. Founding partners Brandon Berger and Lauren Crampsie recently toured the Monzello training center and the Brianteo stadium, marking their first reconnaissance mission since acquiring a majority stake three weeks ago.
New Owners, New Strategy?
While the official closing of the deal is expected in September, the Americans are already immersing themselves in the club's operations. They're keeping a watchful eye on transfer developments, working alongside the existing management team of Adriano Galliani, Mauro Baldissoni, and Nicolas Burdisso.
Galliani has emphasized that the deal is progressing smoothly, but cautioned against premature celebrations. "Everything between the seller and the buyer is perfect, but we are in an intermediate period. The negotiations for the sale of Monza are not yet closed," he stated.
Transfer Targets in Sight
Despite a flurry of recent signings, Monza isn't slowing down. Padova central defender Filippo Delli Carri is reportedly their primary target, potentially replacing Armando Izzo, who may be heading to Cremonese. Delli Carri is known for his versatility, capable of playing multiple positions in defense.
The arrival of Beckett Layne Ventures has injected fresh hope into the club. Fans are eager to see what the new ownership brings, both on and off the pitch. Will their investment lead to promotion to Serie A? Only time will tell.
