Monaco FC Receives Positive News Before Aston Villa Match
AS Monaco has received encouraging news ahead of their crucial UEFA Champions League clash with Aston Villa on Tuesday evening. Manager Adi Hütter announced at Monday’s press conference that key players Wilfried Singo and Denis Zakaria are expected to be available for the match.
Both Singo and Zakaria, who are integral to Monaco’s lineup, were absent during the team’s unexpected 2-1 defeat against Montpellier HSC last Friday. Zakaria had been battling illness, a problem that has affected several squad members, while Singo was dealing with a minor back problem.
Hütter stated, “We anticipate having Denis (Zakaria) back, and he should be able to play. Golo (Aleksandr Golovin) is also recovering from illness. Christian Mawissa has returned, and we believe Singo will be fit to play as well. It’s significantly better when nearly all players are available for selection. We have a training session today, after which we’ll review their performance data to determine if they can be part of the starting lineup.”
The return of these players is a significant boost for Monaco, who need only one point to secure their advancement to the next stage of the Champions League. However, the team will still be without Folarin Balogun and George Ilenikhena for the upcoming match.
This positive development in player availability could prove crucial for Monaco as they face Aston Villa in this important European fixture.
