Bologna’s Italiano Earns Serie A Coach of the Month Honor for March
Bologna head coach Vincenzo Italiano has been named Serie A Coach of the Month for March 2025 after leading his team to a perfect record of four wins. The Rossoblu earned the maximum 12 points during the month, propelling them into a Champions League position.
Italiano, who has been linked with taking over at AC Milan next season, beat out contenders like Inter’s Simone Inzaghi and Roma’s Claudio Ranieri for the award. Bologna’s impressive March included victories over Cagliari (2-1), Hellas Verona (2-1), Lazio (5-0), and Venezia (1-0).
The Bologna manager will receive his trophy before kickoff in Monday’s match against Napoli. This marks Italiano’s first Coach of the Month honor for the 2024-25 season.
Bologna could sweep the March awards, as forward Riccardo Orsolini is nominated for Player of the Month alongside Inter’s Nicolo Barella, Como’s Lucas Da Cunha, Roma’s Artem Dovbyk, Fiorentina’s Nicolo Fagioli and Udinese’s Oumar Solet.
