Monza under coach Ivan Juric outlines youth project and squad changes

Ivan Juric was presented as the new head coach of Serie A club Monza, praising the club’s structured organization and its focus on developing young talent. He said the project aims to build a squad of promising players with room for improvement, noting that the market “needs a bit of everything.” Juric confirmed that forward Keita Baldé will not be part of the technical project, describing the decision as purely technical and offering to find a suitable solution for the player. The club announced the loan of 19‑year‑old midfielder Ebenezer Ajodun Akinsanmiro from Inter Milan, with an option to buy, as an example of the youth‑focused recruitment. Monza also identified centre‑back Filippo Terracciano from AC Milan as a primary target for strengthening the defence. Juric highlighted the importance of midfielder Matteo Pessina, whom he had wanted at Torino, and reiterated his commitment to a hard‑working, motivated squad.
