Talks break down: Terzic turns down Monaco, Rose could take over | OneFootball

AS Monaco must realign their search for a new coach – Edin Terzic will not be the successor to Adi Hütter. According to the French daily newspaper L’Équipe, talks between the Champions League participant and the former BVB coach have definitively broken down.

According to the report, Terzic showed no interest in taking a job in the principality. Although the 42-year-old was considered the preferred solution internally, Monaco is now looking for alternatives after his rejection. For now, this also means a comeback of the Arnsberg native on the coaching bench is off the table.

According to L’Équipe, Terzic’s refusal could now put Marco Rose in an excellent starting position. The 49-year-old, who was released by RB Leipzig in March of this year, is considered one of the main candidates to succeed Hütter.

Alongside Rose, Sergio Conceição (most recently AC Milan) is also on the Monegasques’ list, but according to the report, the Portuguese coach is leaning towards a move to Saudi Arabia. Al-Ittihad is said to have made him a highly lucrative offer there.

As early as Monday, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano had reported that AS Monaco’s club management was seriously considering parting ways with Adi Hütter. Although the Austrian’s team is in fifth place after six matchdays and only three points behind leaders PSG, the confidence of those in charge seems to be waning.

In particular, the inconsistent performances in the league and the disappointing displays in the Champions League have led to internal discussions. The Monegasques want to make a decision before the next international break – but now without Terzic.

Since his resignation from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2024, Edin Terzic has not taken on a new coaching position. The former BVB coach has been working as a TV pundit for RTL since September, mainly covering matches of the German national team.

However, the 42-year-old apparently does not rule out a job abroad in principle – he just seems to want to take a break from the stress of coaching for the time being.
