At the press conference preceding the League 1 match against FC Metz, Adi Hütter, AS Monaco coach, faced several important absences from his team. He confirmed Denis Zakaria’s package, which will be unavailable for at least two months due to an injury. In addition, Christian Mawissa’s physical condition is uncertain due to an discomfort to the ischio, leaving a doubt about his participation. This news follows the team’s defeat in the Champions League against Bruges.

However, the situation seems more encouraging for Ansu Fati. After a successful entry in the match in Belgium, the coach said he could be titularized against Metz. This potential tenure represents a valuable offensive reinforcement for Monaco, which is currently going through a period of fragility in its field environment. The absence of Zakaria and the uncertainty about Mawissa accentuate the need to rely on available players and trust young talent.

The match between Monaco and Metz, scheduled for September 21 at 5.15 p.m. at the Stade Louis-II, will therefore be particularly delicate for AS Monaco. The team will need to demonstrate resilience and creativity to overcome these challenges and achieve a positive result. The potential titularization of Ansu Fati could be a major asset in this regard, offering a new offensive dimension to the team. The outcome of this meeting will be crucial for Monaco’s morale and ranking in League 1.
