The Head Coach of Melbourne City, Aurelio Vidmar, has been honoured with the title of Coach of the Month for April in the Isuzu UTE A-League.
This marks the culmination of coaching accolades for the 2025-26 season, with Arthur Diles of Melbourne Victory previously receiving the award for March.
During the eligible period in April, Vidmar led his team to three victories and only one defeat, propelling Melbourne City into the Finals Series with a formidable late-season performance.
At the conclusion of the regular season in the Isuzu UTE A-League, Melbourne City secured sixth place and is set to take on Auckland FC in the Elimination Finals.
Vidmar earned his nomination for the April accolade through Football Coaches Australia’s monthly selection process.

The April consideration period comprised Rounds 23-26 of the Isuzu UTE A-League, with matches played from April 2 to April 26 being counted by the FCA Panel for the Coach of the Month nominations.
