Squad4 Jan 2027

A one-man rearguard from Lukás Hrádecký

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Jordan Teze is named among the best

There are footballers who have a good season and footballers a season is remembered for, and the second kind get their names read out in a hall in the summer. Monaco will be quietly delighted and privately nervous.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Tempers go at Monaco

Denis Zakaria was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Bradel Kiwa is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 20 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Market4 Jan 2027

Angers SCO join the queue for Romaric Etonde

Add another name to the list: Angers SCO have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Romaric Etonde. The answer from Monaco has not changed — yet.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Nobody could get near Takumi Minamino

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match2 Jan 2027

RC Strasbourg take the points off Monaco

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Loan watch4 Jan 2027

Yannick Dodo counts the days

“I watch every Monaco game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Olympique Lyonnais runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Player ratings4 Jan 2027

Off the pace: Mika Biereth

A mark of 4.49 tells the story without any need for embellishment. He will want the tape of this one quietly lost.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Nothing got past Lamine Camara

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 25 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad21 Dec 2026

No hiding place for Folarin Balogun

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Folarin Balogun, and the manager let it.

Tempers go at Monaco

Paul Pogba was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Nothing got past Eric Dier

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 18 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Lukás Hrádecký has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Monaco will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Player ratings21 Dec 2026

Nobody could get near Takumi Minamino

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad21 Dec 2026

The division's best last weekend was a Monaco man

It is a small honour and it is not nothing: somebody watched every match in the division and decided that Folarin Balogun was the best thing in any of them.

Match19 Dec 2026

No goals between Monaco and FC Lorient

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. FC Lorient will be the happier side with the point.

Loan watch21 Dec 2026

5 goals on loan for Mamadou Coulibaly

14 appearances at Picerno and the goals keep coming. Monaco are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A one-man rearguard from Lukás Hrádecký

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Match31 Oct 2026

6 matches without a win for Monaco

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around Monaco are no longer polite ones.

Market2 Nov 2026

Maghnes Akliouche wants more than Monaco are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Denis Zakaria gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Eric Dier falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Paul Pogba in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Monaco this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match31 Oct 2026

Monaco and Angers SCO take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Nobody could get near Takumi Minamino

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Folarin Balogun changes it off the bench

He was not in the side at half past three and he had settled it before five. Half an hour, and Monaco had a different afternoon.

Market3 Aug 2026

Maghnes Akliouche wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Monaco hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Lukás Hrádecký signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Lukás Hrádecký and Monaco agree another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Denis Zakaria in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Monaco this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words at Monaco training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Lukás Hrádecký is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market3 Aug 2026

AJ Auxerre join the queue for Romaric Etonde

Add another name to the list: AJ Auxerre have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Romaric Etonde. The answer from Monaco has not changed — yet.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Lukás Hrádecký's contract

24 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.
