A good year after leaving Borussia Mönchengladbach, Adi Hütter has found a new club: he will coach AS Monaco in the future. There he meets familiar faces from the Bundesliga.

The former Bundesliga coach Adi Hütter will be the new coach at AS Monaco in French Ligue 1. The 53-year-old Austrian has signed a two-season contract with Monagasse until June 30, 2025, as the club announced.

In Monaco, Hütter succeeds Belgian Philippe Clement, from whom the club parted ways after missing out on the European Football Cup last season. The ex-Gladbacher Hütter is scheduled to lead his first training session on Wednesday.

Borussia Mönchengladbach parted ways with Hütter in May 2022 after a mediocre season. The coach had previously looked after Eintracht Frankfurt from 2018 to 2021. In 2019 he reached the semi-finals of the Europa League with Hessen.

“Over the past few years, Adi has proven himself in a number of different leagues and on the European stage,” Monaco football director Thiago Scuro said in a statement. Before his Bundesliga stations, Hütter had worked in Switzerland and Austria.

At Monaco, long-time Leverkusen player Kevin Volland and ex-Cologne player Ismail Jakobs are in the squad. Most recently, goalkeeper Alexander Nübel was loaned from FC Bayern Munich to the club from the principality.
