AC Monza is set to embark on a significant new chapter as Fininvest S.p.A. officially announced the complete sale of the club`s capital to Beckett Layne Ventures (BLV), a U.S.-based entity. This pivotal ownership change for the Serie A team has been widely reported by Italian media, including *Il Giornale*, which prominently featured headlines noting Monza`s “Americanization” and speculated on the continued role of CEO Adriano Galliani.
The agreement for the full transfer of AC Monza`s shares was formally signed today. The transaction has been structured in two distinct phases: an initial 80% stake will be transferred to BLV by this summer, with the remaining 20% scheduled to follow by June 2026. Until the complete acquisition is finalized, Fininvest will maintain a presence on the club`s Board of Directors, proportional to its residual shareholding.
Beckett Layne Ventures, headquartered in the United States and led by Brandon Berger, functions as a financial partner and strategic consultant, with a core focus on companies within the dynamic sports, media, and entertainment industries. The BLV team, alongside its extensive network of partners and advisors—notably including Mauro Baldissoni, who held a senior leadership position at AS Roma for several years—brings substantial and proven experience in professional sports, with a particularly strong background in European football, to its new venture with AC Monza.
