Pogba-Zidane-Monaco-A look at the past and the present

Paul Pogba shared a friendly moment with Zinédine Zidane at a meeting of former French players in Aix-en-Provence. This meeting follows a period of change for several footballers. Han-Noa Massengo, after a successful loan to the AJ Auxerre, is about to join FC Augsburg in Germany, a transfer whose financial details amount to three million euros. The young midfielder, trained at AS Monaco, had a season in Ligue 1 with Auxerre and is now engaged for a long time with the German club.

AS Monaco has a rich and exciting history, marked by European and national successes. The 1990s saw the club win the French championship and reach the semifinals of the Champions League. The 2000s were crowned by a new champion title in 2000 and a memorable course in the Champions League in 2004, where the team, led by Didier Deschamps, reached the final. After a period of financial and sporting difficulties, the arrival of Dmitry Rybolovlev in 2011 enabled the club to recover, culminating with a double championship-cup in 2017 and regular participation in the Champions League.

To illustrate the richness of the talents that have marked AS Monaco since 1990, a typical 4-3-3 team has been proposed. This composition highlights iconic players, focusing on impact and longevity within the club. This team represents the strong identity of AS Monaco, a club capable of competing with the biggest and that continues to rely on its formation to maintain its level of competition in Ligue 1. The club has regularly targeted European squares, demonstrating its ability to attract and develop high-level talent.
