Monaco had a fairytale in 2017 which saw them make a surprise run to the semi-final of the Champions League as well as thump moneybags PSG to the French Ligue 1 crown.

That campaign birthed the likes of players like Bernardo Silva, Kylian Mbappe, Benjamin Mendy among others. Most of those players have moved on to bigger clubs and left Monaco floundering in their absence.

This campaign, it has been a disastrous one for the principality outfit, who have been beleaguered by injuries and find themselves struggling in Ligue 1.

Their poor form led to the termination of Brazilian manager Leonardo Jardim's contract with former French striker Thierry Henry announced in his stead.

Henry's appointment has not improved and they currently find themselves second from bottom on the table, having picked up just three wins from 18 matches and are in real danger of being relegated to Ligue 2 which is a real shame considering their high flying performances just a year ago.
