MONACO NEWS

Monaco, Lyon and Marseille will fight for the second place on the table until the end of the season. PSG is 11 points ahead of Monaco at the moment and it seems they will reclaim the throne long before the season ends. Monaco had a bad European season - they finished last in Champions League group with Porto, Leipzig and Besiktas, which was a huge disappointment. In the league, they proclaimed the biggest ambitions before the start of the season, but after Mbappe transferred to PSG, it became clear that the title will return to Paris. They will fight for the place in Champions League.
