After a two-month contract-free period, World Champion Benjamin Mendy found a new club in Poland. Following a disappointing passage to FC Zürich, the French left side signed with the Pogon Szczeciń for a period of two years. This transfer will bring him together with Kamil Grosicki, former player of Stade Rennais, who is already playing in this Polish club. This new stage in his career marks a continuation for Mendy, who continues his career despite recent difficulties.
AS Monaco is preparing to face Club Bruges on the first day of the league phase of the Champions League. The team, led by Adi Hütter, hopes to outperform its previous campaign, marked by a dam elimination against Benfica. The match, which will take place in Bruges under the arbitration of Simone Sozza, will be closely followed by the former Monaco coach, who will be present in the stands to support the Belgian players. The Bruges team is known for its rigorous preparation and rapid transitions, but will also have to pay attention to key players such as Vanaken and Tzolis.
At the same time, Ligue 1 seems to have improved its attractiveness, thanks in particular to better communication of audience figures and the growing commitment of supporters.
