At the end of the contract in June, Djibril Sidibé did not extend with AS Monaco
As expected, the 29-year-old right-back, French champion with AS Monaco in 2017, did not agree with his leaders for a contract extension.
On Sunday, in a last review meeting before the holidays, Sidibé spoke with his coach Philippe Clement about his ambition to get more playing time next season, which the Belgian could not promise him. .
“It was a blessing to have three secondary rights like that in recent months. Ruben (Aguilar) has done a very great job in the last ten games. Vanderson represents the future. I used him very high because he missed Krepin (Diatta) but his best position is at the back, explained the Monaco coach. We spoke with Djibril, he wants to have more minutes, he is still very ambitious. Even when he was not playing a lot, he was very positive during the sessions and in the dressing room. I can’t guarantee him more minutes and his contract is over. But I’m sure he’s still a Monaco supporter.”he added.
It’s a page that turns for the club and for a player who will have played 176 games (6 goals) in the Monegasque jersey since 2016 (apart from a one-season loan to Everton during the 2019-2020 season. ).
In search of new opportunities, Djibril Sidibé could bounce back in the German championship.
