Since Friday morning and an agreement in principle found between the three parties, the suspense was thin but this time, it is sure: Philippe Clement will be the new coach of AS Monaco. Full agreement was found. The Belgian technician (47), at Club Bruges since 2019, will be appointed in the coming hours. He will arrive with his staff (a priori three assistants).
The length of his contract has not filtered. Niko Kovac’s successor will not lead his team for the first time against Quevilly-Rouen in the Coupe de France this Sunday (6.30 p.m.). From a Belgian source, it was indicated this Saturday noon that he should however be in the gallery to attend the meeting. Club Brugge has been making more contacts in recent hours to replace him as quickly as possible.
