Monza manager back on the job seven weeks after sacking

Monza have recalled Alessandro Nesta to take over as manager following the sacking of Salvatore Bocchetti by the Serie A club.

Monday’s move follows a heavy defeat at the weekend that kept the club rooted at the bottom of the standings in Italy’s top league.

Bocchetti replaced Nesta in December, signing a contract until June 2027, but his side registered only one win in seven league games, and Sunday’s 5-1 loss at Lazio was Monza’s fourth consecutive defeat.

Monza also exited the Coppa Italia, losing 4-0 to Bologna, during Bocchetti’s time in charge.

Nesta, a former Italy international and defender with Lazio and AC Milan, returns to the bench seven weeks after his sacking.

He originally took charge when Raffaele Palladino left for Fiorentina at the end of last season, but his first managerial role in Serie A initially ended after Monza managed one league win in the opening 17 games.

Monza, with two league wins this season, have 13 points from 24 games, and host Lecce on Sunday.
