AS Monaco’s rising star Maghnes Akliouche has solidified his place as one of Europe’s most sought-after young talents.
At just 22, the dynamic playmaker chose to remain with the Principality club over summer offers from Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain. Now, with AC Milan reportedly joining the fray for his signature, Akliouche’s stance—and Monaco’s—remains resolute.
“It is his decision and ours that the priority is to stay. We are in good conversations with him and his agent about a contract extension,” Monaco CEO Thiago Scuro affirmed in July. Shortly after, Akliouche extended his contract until 2028, a clear signal of his commitment to Monaco.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports AC Milan are eyeing a January bid, but sources like Fabrizio Romano confirm Monaco will reject any mid-season offers.
Though a winter move seems off the table, Monaco’s sell-to-thrive model suggests Akliouche’s future could pivot next summer. With a breakthrough season already under his belt, Europe’s elite will undoubtedly circle back for the French youth international, whose star continues to rise.
