Official: Monza win promotion and complete Serie A line-up for 2026-27

Monza have won promotion back to the top flight at the first time of asking via the Serie B play-offs and have now completed the full Serie A line-up for the 2026-27 season. Monza have earned promotion back to Serie A thanks to a two-legged play-off final victory over Catanzaro, which came to an end on Friday night. Monza won their first leg 2-0 and were defeated 2-0 in their return fixture on Friday, but despite the tie ending level, it was Monza who earned promotion due to their superior league finish (3rd vs. 5th). Monza defeated the fifth-placed Catanzaro over two legs of the semi-finals, drawing 2-2 in their first leg and winning 2-1 in the second earlier in May. FLORENCE, ITALY – NOVEMBER 22: General view inside the stadium Artemio Franchi during the Serie A match between ACF Fiorentina and Juventus FC at Artemio Franchi on November 22, 2025 in Florence, Italy.
