Joseph Adrian Montemurro (born 13 September 1969) is an Australian soccer coach and former player who is currently the head coach of French club Lyon Women.
Montemurro played as a midfielder during his short playing career, mainly in Italy, before returning to Australia to play in the Victorian state leagues. He began coaching in youth football for various Victorian clubs, before his first managerial role with Sunshine George Cross, and then later, Coburg United. His first job abroad came in 2013, spending four months as the inaugural manager of Papua New Guinean side Port Moresby. From 2014 to 2017, he managed the women's sides of Melbourne Victory and Melbourne City, and then replaced Pedro Martínez Losa as manager of Arsenal, where he won the league title in his second season with the club. In 2021, Montemurro moved to Italy to join Juventus Women, and in 2024, he became coach of Olympique Lyonnais Féminin.
