Adi Hütter sacked as coach of AS Monaco after just one year!

The football world has once again experienced a remarkable change: Adi Hütter, the Austrian coach of AS Monaco, has to resign from his position. After just two seasons, Hütter and the club parted ways, something that had been considered inevitable for a few days. The 55-year-old had been on board since July 2023 and led the Monegasques to second and third places in Ligue 1, which ultimately led to direct qualification for the Champions League. After seven matchdays, the team is currently in fifth place in the league, which does not meet expectations.

In the season in which Hütter took over responsibility, his tactical approaches certainly produced positive results. Under his aegis, Monaco played a respectable role in the league, but recent performances have been unsatisfactory. The team only managed one win in the last five competitive games and had to settle for a 2-2 draw in the exciting derby against OGC Nice. Fans and those responsible were looking forward to more.

The background to the decision

The separation from Adi Hütter was confirmed in an official statement from the club. AS Monaco thanked the coach and his team for the work they have done and wished them all the best for the future. In the last European season the team reached the play-offs against Benfica, but in the current Champions League season they only have one point after two games, with a defeat against Bruges and a draw against Manchester City.

Performances in Ligue 1 have been mixed so far, although Monaco's statistics show that the team has recorded four wins, two defeats and a draw from their first seven games. The insufficient stability and lack of consistency ultimately led to the decision to change coach.

Who is coming to Hütter?

Sebastien Pocognoli, who is currently head coach at Union Saint-Gilloise, is considered a possible successor. It remains to be seen whether he can meet the expectations of the club's management and lead the Monegasques out of their current misery.

The future of AS Monaco remains exciting. The club has clear ambitions and will try to get back on the road to success as quickly as possible. The pressure is now on the shoulders of the next coach to set the course for a successful season.

Fans and supporters can only hope that Monaco will soon find the form that has made them so successful in the past. The coming weeks will be crucial to see where the club's path will lead. Who knows, maybe the next coach will have a good hand and lead the team back to the upper echelons of Ligue 1.
