Monza have reaffirmed its support for head coach Alessandro Nesta following a challenging 2-1 defeat against Lecce, marking the team’s eighth loss of the season. Despite the disappointing result, the club’s management has decided to retain Nesta’s position, allowing him to continue leading the team through a difficult period.
In the aftermath of the match, which left Monza at the bottom of the Serie A standings with just 10 points, Nesta expressed his determination to improve the team’s fortunes. “We must be worthy of this club,” he stated. “After a tough week, we have come together as a team. I am responsible for the squad, and while last week was disappointing, it is now behind us.”
Zanetti highlighted the importance of unity within the team, emphasizing that they had to remain focused on their objectives. “We have shown that we can compete in important matches,” he noted. “Losses are part of our journey, but today we needed a reaction, and this is just the beginning.”
Looking ahead to their next match against Juventus at the U-Power Stadium, Nesta remains focused on improving performances and achieving better results. “I made choices based on our current situation,” he explained regarding his lineup decisions. “We cannot afford to have players who are not fully fit on the pitch.”
Nesta also reflected on his relationship with sporting director Sean Sogliano and how they communicated with the players during this challenging time. “We have worked as a team without dwelling on topics that have thrown us off balance,” he said. “The bond I share with Sean is strong and honest; he believes I can still contribute to this club.”
