The Tours native, who turns 19 on 28 August, joined the Academy in 2019 after playing for Tours Football Club (2009-2014) and Chambray FC (2014-2019) in the Indre-et-Loire region.
Eight games played as a professional
Trained in La Diagonal, Edan Diop, who signed his first professional contract in August 2022, was one of the Principality club’s revelations last season. After starting the 2022-23 season in the Elite group, Edan took part in his first professional match in the Europa League against Bayer Leverkusen on 23 February.
Following that match, Edan made 8 appearances for the pro team, including a goal against Racing Club de Strasbourg, which helped Monaco to a 4-3 win.
