Senegal international Krépin Diatta is nearing a departure from AS Monaco, with negotiations over his exit reportedly moving towards completion ahead of the 1 September transfer deadline.
Diatta, who joined the Ligue 1 side in January 2021 from Belgian champions Club Bruges, has seen his future at the club come into sharp focus after a disappointing final season.
According to French outlet Foot Mercato, discussions between the player, Monaco, and interested parties have progressed to the point where all sides are aligned on ending his spell in the Principality.
The 25-year-old’s contract with Monaco is due to expire in a year, and with no extension in place, both the club and the player are understood to view a summer transfer as the best solution.
Diatta’s versatility, having operated both as a winger and in a full-back role, combined with his experience at the highest level, makes him an appealing option for several European clubs monitoring his situation.
During his time at Monaco, Diatta has been part of squads competing at the top end of French football, as well as featuring prominently for Senegal’s national team.
His contributions have included appearances in domestic league campaigns, European competitions, and continental tournaments with the Teranga Lions.
However, his most recent campaign did not meet expectations, with limited impact on the pitch contributing to the decision to part ways.
The agreement in principle for his departure signals a fresh chapter for both player and club, as Monaco look to reshape their squad under the guidance of manager Ruben Amorim.
For Diatta, the coming weeks could define the next stage of his career. With proven credentials in both attacking and defensive wide positions, he offers tactical flexibility, pace, and international pedigree — qualities that could strengthen a variety of European sides.
His availability has already attracted attention from teams seeking to bolster their squad depth before the transfer window closes.
Although no destination has been confirmed, the alignment between all parties suggests an announcement could follow swiftly once final details are resolved.
The move would bring an end to Diatta’s three-and-a-half-year tenure in Monaco, where his arrival in 2021 was seen as a significant coup from Club Bruges, given his strong performances in Belgium and rising reputation across European football.
As the countdown to the transfer deadline continues, Diatta’s departure appears increasingly inevitable, with his next challenge likely to come in a league where his speed, adaptability, and top-level experience can be fully utilised.
For Monaco, it marks another step in their summer restructuring plans, while for Diatta, it opens the door to a new opportunity to revive his form and make a decisive impact at the highest level.
