Berlusconi Bows Out: AC Monza Sold to U.S. Firm Beckett Layne Ventures

The Berlusconi family has decided to part ways with AC Monza, selling the soccer club to the U.S.-based investment firm Beckett Layne Ventures. This decision marks a significant shift for one of Italy's notable supporters of the sport.

The agreement values the club at approximately 45 million euros, including debt, highlighting a financial downturn after its relegation from Serie A.

Following Silvio Berlusconi's death in 2023, the family's involvement in soccer has dwindled, with Monza joining a growing list of Italian clubs now under U.S. ownership.
