AS Monaco is going through a period of transition with the arrival of Folarin Balogun, an American attacker whose adaptation to the club has been complex since his arrival in the summer of 2023. After a first season of adjustment, he started the second season successfully, scoring three goals in three games, before suffering a shoulder injury. Balogun now feels better integrated into Monaco and the team, entering his third season. His arrival is all the more timely as she fills Breel Embolo’s departure for Stade Rennais, making him an ideal replacement. The 24-year-old attacker mentioned this difficult adaptation in an interview with the ASM, stressing the importance of the time needed to integrate and the satisfaction he feels today in the club.

The ASMFF (AS Monaco Football Female) starts its second season in D3 with a clear goal: to ensure its retention in the category. Following the arrival of a new investor, the club experienced a significant renewal with a new coach, a new staff and a significant turnover. There are no fewer than 11 new recruits, including Elise Gaucher, Paule Moitrel, Manelle Ben Mohamed, Maureen Bigot, Ramsey David, Mellie Lacola, Manoon Issert, Fatumata Baldé, Yrma Mze Issa, Laure Robert and Enola Dumontet. These new players, some of whom already have a high level D1 experience, complete an already strong band and promise to boost the team.

The ASMFF championship will be competitive with a calendar rich in confrontations against 12 teams, including Bordeaux, Longvic, Cannes and Montpellier. The start of the season will be on Sunday 7 September at 12 noon with a match against Bordeaux. The team is entrusted to Chloé Rochetaing, who will be able to rely on motivated and experienced players to meet the challenge. AS Monaco Women hopes for a successful season and invites fans to support them in the first game.
