Philipp Köhn says he is ready to ‘fight’ for his place as Monaco search for a new goalkeeper | OneFootball

AS Monaco are looking to sign a first-choice goalkeeper this summer. However, Philipp Köhn (27) has not given up hope of earning a place in the team, as he told L’Équipe.

Monaco’s CEO, Thiago Scuro, stated that the club would be in the market for a new goalkeeper this summer. It comes after a season in which the No.1 jersey was passed between Köhn and Radoslaw Majecki, without either goalkeeper truly convincing.

This has lead Les Monégasques to seek a recruit in this sector. As per L’Équipe, there are a range of targets from Chelsea’s Djordje Petrović, to Manchester United’s André Onana, to Barcelona’s Marc-André Ter Stegen. However, for now, Monaco has yet to land their next No.1.

Regardless of the Principality club’s intentions in the transfer market, Köhn is ready to fight for his place next season. “If they want to bring in a new goalkeeper, it is the club’s decision. It is okay for me. I will fight for my place. I showed things this season,” said the Swiss goalkeeper.

It is thought that the arrival of a new first-choice goalkeeper will lead to one of Majecki or Köhn leaving the club this summer.
