Monza’s Last-Ditch Effort for Survival: Galliani Hires Mental Coach

Monza, currently at the bottom of Serie A, is making a desperate attempt to avoid relegation. With only 15 points and 10 points away from safety, the team led by Alessandro Nesta has struggled throughout the season, securing just two victories. Their offensive and defensive records are among the worst in the league.

In a bid to turn things around, Adriano Galliani, the club’s CEO, has made a bold move by hiring mental coach Stefano Tirelli. Tirelli, who has previous experience with the English national team and Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea, is tasked with improving the psychological aspect of the players’ performance.

This decision comes as Monza faces a crucial series of matches, including away games against Cagliari and Venezia, and a home fixture against Como. These encounters could prove decisive in their fight for survival. Following these matches, Monza will face tough challenges against top-tier teams like Napoli, Juventus, and Atalanta.

The club hopes that Tirelli’s expertise will help restore order within the team and maximize each player’s potential. With the season’s end approaching, Monza will need to make the most of every remaining match to have any chance of avoiding relegation to Serie B.
