Overview

• The Berlusconi family’s holding company Fininvest has signed an agreement to sell an 80% stake in AC Monza to U.S.-based Beckett Layne Ventures.
• Under the deal, Fininvest will retain 20% until it completes its exit by June 2026.
• The agreement values the club at approximately €45 million including debt after a 70% write-down prompted by last season’s Serie A relegation.
• Monza accumulated €270 million in losses since 2018 under Silvio Berlusconi’s ownership, including €48 million in 2024.
• The sale marks Fininvest’s full retreat from professional soccer, underscoring the deepening footprint of U.S. investors in Italian football.
