Monaco has a young and talented face on the transfer window. After recruiting striker George Ilenikhena (17 years old) from Antwerp and midfielder Lamine Camara (20 years old) from FC Metz, the team led by Adolf Hütter is now eyeing a new promising player with Paris Brunner (18 years old). A player who already has very good references. Winner of the Euro U17 2023 and the U17 World Cup 2023 with Germany, he was voted best player in both competitions.

Great references in the youth teams for him who shone again last season with the U19s of Borussia Dortmund (20 goals and 6 assists in 22 matches). While he only has one year left on his contract and the Marsupials do not offer him enough prospects (only one call-up to the first team this season), Paris Brunner wants to leave the Ruhr this summer. Indeed, he is disappointed that the sporting director Sebastian Kehl and the new coach Nuri Sahin did not allow him to have his chance in the professional group next season.

Monaco in advanced discussions

On the way out, Paris Brunner should leave Germany for France. At least that’s what has been announced Sport Image. Information that can be confirmed. The media explains that AS Monaco is offering him a long-term development plan that is much more interesting than what he currently has in Germany. Thus, if the AS Monaco first team will not open the doors to him in the short term, it will not slow him down. The plan is to loan him out initially to Cercle Bruges, a partner club of ASM, before he has his chance later with Monaco.

A development that pleases Paris Brunner who appreciates the project offered by the Monegasques. For the moment, discussions are underway between AS Monaco and Borussia Dortmund and are advanced. The transfer should be concluded for a low amount given the contractual situation of the player. Dortmund for its part does not seem to want to put obstacles in the way of the player’s departure.
