Overview
- AS Monaco announced the end of its collaboration with coach Sebastien Pocognoli and confirmed the departures of his two assistants plus several other staff members.
- Monaco finished seventh in Ligue 1, which denied the club Champions League qualification and placed it in next season’s UEFA Conference League play-offs.
- Pocognoli was hired last October from Union Saint-Gilloise and still had one year remaining on his Monaco contract when the club dismissed him.
- The 38-year-old produced a midseason 10-match unbeaten run that briefly put Monaco in top-three contention but a poor run to the end of the campaign cost the club its Champions League bid.
- Several media outlets have named former defender Filipe Luis as the reported favourite to succeed Pocognoli, though that hiring has not been confirmed by the club.
