It’s hard to really judge the season for AS Monaco. Niko Kovac’s troops are in sixth position at the break, a little below what a team of this caliber is aiming for. But on the other hand, the Asemists are only four points from the second position, occupied by OGC Nice. The situation is therefore very far from critical … They are also on a rather positive dynamic of three victories over the last four days of Ligue 1.

To get the best out of rivals like Montpellier or Rennes in the second part of the season but above all to prepare for the future in this specific case, the management of the Rocher club therefore intends to strengthen the workforce. If various Brazilian media evoked a very pronounced interest of Monegasques for Vanderson (20), we can exclusively confirm that everything is complete: the player from Grêmio will join the Principality this winter. The operation will be formalized as soon as the winter transfer window opens.

Monaco grilled from the beautiful world

An agreement has thus been reached with the Brazilian team, and AS Monaco will spend 11 million euros in total. A nice amount that will be settled in five payments. The Ligue 1 residents were notably ahead of Brentford but especially AC Milan, which was very interested in the profile of the player who scored three goals and delivered two assists in the last 30 meetings of the last Brazilian league. He has also evolved as a right midfielder on several occasions during the past season.

Note that, still according to our information, his arrival is not intended to replace any departure of players like Ruben Aguilar or Djibril Sidibé. It is a bet for the future and in Brazil, many observers him as the future side of the Canarinha. UOL Esport recently explained that Titus was following him very closely in view of Brazil’s lists. It’s up to him to prove that he can do honor to all his admirers on French lawns from next month!
