After starting the summer preparation with the professional group at the Performance Centre, Enzo played with Cercle Brugge in the first pre-season friendly (1-0) before playing the second half of the game against FC St. Gallen under Philippe Clement (1-1).

Like the whole U19 group, Antonin and Enzo have shown great things this season. This first pro contract is a reward for the efforts they have already made and we expect them to continue in this way”.

Pascal de Maesschalck, Director of Youth Development: “We are happy to see Antonin and Enzo, like Mamadou Coulibaly before them, grow with AS Monaco. It is now up to them to repay the trust the Club has placed in them by continuing their work and showing the same desire to progress on a daily basis.”
