AS Monaco continues its development policy by recruiting three promising young talents between the ages of 16 and 17. The club entered into a commitment with Ekene Chukwuani, a Danish international U17 attacker, for an amount of one million euros. He impressed with 25 goals in 23 games for Brøndby ID. The defensive medium Matthias Wamu Oyatambwe, 16 years old and 1.88m, also arrives from Genk. Finally, Daryl Leunga Leunga, a 17-year-old Belgian central defender from the Liège Standard, is expected to formalize his arrival soon. These acquisitions are part of a workforce-building strategy for the future.

The Ligue 1 unveiled the 6th day’s television programme, which will take place on Fridays 26, Saturdays 27 and Sundays 28 September. At the same time, Maghnes Akliouche, selected for the first time with the French A team, evoked her debut with Les Bleus and her busy summer in the transfer market. The player stressed his desire to confirm his status and be decisive, inspired in particular by Iniesta’s style of play. His personal and collective goals align with those of the club: ambition the Champions League and aim for the top 3 in Ligue 1, while seeking to advance individually.

AS Monaco’s summer mercato resulted in a positive financial balance, with a surplus of €103 million thanks to a successful degreasing strategy. The club recorded 17 departures and 9 arrivals, with a relatively high average age of recruits (27.6 years). The purpose of this transaction is to compensate for the lack of income from domestic TV rights and the constraints of the stage. AS Monaco is thus preparing for the new season with a revised and corrected staff, with a view to achieving a higher performance than that of the previous season in the Champions League.
