Eliesse Ben Seghir is your August Bang & Olufsen MVP!
He’s hardly had time to rest after the Games. After a bronze in Paris with Morocco, Eliesse Ben Seghir returned immediately as a starter for AS Monaco’s prestigious victory in the Trophée Gamper against Barcelona (3-0). It was a role he kept during the first three matches of the season against Saint-Etienne, Lyon and then Lens..
Key to the win in Lyon
Already impressive against Les Verts with notably a final pass before a shot, five balls recovered and three fouls suffered, the young midfielder trained at the Academy would then open his account in Lyon with a a key performance.
After a two-man move with Maghnes Akliouche, he crossed his shot perfectly to put the ball in Lucas Perri’s side netting. It was a #MadeInLaDiagonale goal reminiscent of the one he had scored in Strasbourg at the end of last season.

Stop me if you can!
Voted MVP, Eliesse had a complete game with six shots including three on target, a final pass before a shot, two crosses, three recoveries and five tackles, a sign of his hard work!
It was the same thing against the Sang et Or where he notably won six fouls, symbol of a player who never stops provoking. It is also not surprising to see him dominate Ligue 1 in the category of opponents beaten (13), as well as progressive runs with the ball (20), according to the X Data’Foot account.
