Raffaele Palladino "Philadelphia Coach Of The Month" for February

The Philadelphia Coach Of The Month award for February has been assigned to Atalanta coach Raffaele Palladino. The trophy will be presented during the pre-match of Atalanta vs Udinese, scheduled for Saturday 7th March at 6.00 pm at the “New Balance Arena” in Bergamo.

The award was assigned by a jury of Directors of sports media who evaluated each coach on the basis of technical and sporting criteria and the quality of play of their teams, as well as their behaviour/fair play during matches.

For the final calculation were considered the matchdays from 23 to 26 of Serie A 2025/2026.

"Since his arrival on the Atalanta bench, Raffaele Palladino has been able to connect with his players, leading the team to fight for a prominent place in the upcoming European Cups - said the CEO of Lega Calcio Serie A, Luigi De Siervo -. A skilled and pragmatic coach, Palladino has built a solid team capable of imposing a high intensity on games thanks to his excellent ability to make the most of his squad, especially in offensive rotations. The successes against Napoli, Lazio and Cremonese, combined with the draw against Como and the conquest of the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa semifinals, certify the extraordinary February of Palladino and his Atalanta, which has returned to shine as in recent seasons".
