AS Monaco congratulates its champions
Twenty years after France 98 and the coronation of Thierry Henry, David Trézéguet, Emmanuel Petit and Lilian Thuram, AS Monaco is very proud to count today, with Kylian Mbappé, a new world champion formed in the academy. Like his proud elders, his name will forever be associated with AS Monaco.
The club also salutes the success of Didier Deschamps, who began his coaching career with AS Monaco.
AS Monaco highlights the performance of Croatian goalkeeper Danijel Subasic, a finalist, who was outstanding throughout the competition.
With Yuri Tielemans, third with Belgium, AS Monaco is the only club, with FC Barcelona, to have a representative on each team at the podium in this edition of the World Cup.
The club also congratulates its captain Falcao, Joao Moutinho, Keita Baldé, Kamil Glik and all AS Monaco players who competed.
Dmitry Rybolovlev, President of AS Monaco
“Congratulations to all those outstanding champions who make the club proud. I have a special thought for Djibril Sidibé, Kylian Mbappé, Benjamin Mendy and Thomas Lemar. Two years after helping AS Monaco win an eighth Ligue 1 title, here they are as world champions. This ultimate title rewards their talent, a flawless state of mind and of course all the work they’ve done for years, including those in the red and white jersey.”
