Wissam Ben Yedder and Aleksandr Golovin were present on Monday when Monaco resumed, where a new coach is still expected but where Thiago Scuro, director of football, took office. In the absence of a coach, it was performance director James Bunce who welcomed the 29 Monegasques called up for the resumption. Austrian Adi Hütter could be appointed as the new coach later this week. In the meantime, the new director of football, the Brazilian Thiago Scuro, whose appointment has been official since July 1, also introduced himself to the medical and sports staff present, as well as to the players.
If the stars Wissam Ben Yedder, Aleksandr Golovin, Caio Henrique, Breel Embolo or even Kevin Volland were present for this recovery, young Monegasque professionals, including the latest, Saïmon Bouabre, 17, were in the majority. Four players returning from loan, Polish goalkeeper Radoslaw Majecki, central defender Harisson Marcelin and youngsters Anthony Musaba and Felix Lemarechal have also made their return to the Côte d’Azur performance centre.
On the other hand, the French internationals Youssouf Fofana and Alex Disasi, called upon by the national team during the month of June, as well as the Senegalese Ismaïl Jakobs and Krepin Diatta, the Malian Mohamed Camara, the Chilean Guillermo Maripan, and the two young Eliesse Ben Seghir, best player of the Maurice Revello Tournament, and Eliot Matazo present at the Euro Espoirs with Belgium, will return in a staggered manner between July 10 and 17. On this date, Monaco will leave for an internship in Birmingham, England until July 22, when a friendly match against the Leeds club will be played. The batteries of physical tests will continue again on Tuesday, before collective training begins on Wednesday.
