Soungoutou Magassa set to extend Monaco contract | OneFootball

Soungoutou Magassa (21) has cemented his place in this AS Monaco team this season, recently putting in stand-out performances against the likes of Bologna and RC Strasbourg Alsace. The France U21 international, who came through the club’s academy, has made 39 appearances for his formative club, 13 of which have come this season.

The midfielder, who has also filled in at centre-back, has provided vital cover for Denis Zakaria and then Lamine Camara, demonstrating not only an ability to fill in when called upon but also an ability to challenge the Zakaria-Camara partnership established at the start of the season.

Magassa’s current deal with Monaco was set to run until the summer of 2027. However, amid a strong run of form, the Principality club have reacted and will now renew his deal by a further two years, according to L’Équipe and Foot Mercato. His new deal is therefore set to run until 2029 and the agreement is set to be announced imminently.
