The Monaco team, in preparation for its trip against the Belgian champions of Club Brugge on the first day of the Champions League, is going through a difficult period. Coach Adi Hütter has faced several obstacles in recent days. A problem of air conditioning in the aircraft prevented the team from acclimatizing properly in Nice, and the coach will also have to deal with the absence of two key players: Mohammed Salisu and Denis Zakaria, both unavailable due to injury. Despite these setbacks, Hütter remains determined to win and make the trip a success for his team.

However, this situation is not just a challenge for Monaco. The Spanish winger Ansu Fati, loaned by FC Barcelona, is approaching its first tenure with the ASM. Adi Hütter confirmed in press conference that Fati has made huge progress in athletics and is ready to join the core team in the coming weeks. His experience and progress are a valuable asset for Monaco, especially after the bad news about Denis Zakaria’s injury. The arrival of Fati, as well as that of young Stanis Idumbo Muzambo in the group, are positive elements for the team.

The trip to Bruges will therefore take place without Captain Denis Zakaria, injured to the adductors, which is a hard blow for the team. His absence could be offset by the first tenure of Aladji Bamba, who made his debut last week against AJ Auxerre. In addition to Fati and Muzambo, the team will be able to count on the determination of its players to overcome these obstacles and achieve a positive result. Coach Hütter relies on team cohesion and individual progression of his players to face this challenge.
