The Serie A Coach of the Month, officially known as the Philadelphia Coach of the Month for sponsorship reasons, is an association football award that recognises the best Serie A head coach each month of the season. The award was introduced for the 2021–22 season.
The first award was assigned to then Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti, who in total has won the award a joint-record five times, alongside Simone Inzaghi. Thiago Motta, Cesc Fàbregas and Cristian Chivu are the only managers to have won the award in consecutive months. The award has been given to twenty-three different coaches, of which eighteen have been Italian, with the only foreign managers awarded being Siniša Mihajlović (Serbia), José Mourinho (Portugal), Cesc Fàbregas (Spain), Cristian Chivu (Romania), and Kosta Runjaić (Germany).
As of September 2026, the most recent winner of the award is Frosinone manager Massimiliano Alvini.
