The club currently experiencing one of its best times has won the battle for forward Frederic Piquionne, who played for the team.
The 28-year-old Frenchman has been linked to famous European clubs such as Lyon, P.S.G, and Betis for some time, but the offer from the principality team was the most acceptable, and the footballer will join his new teammates in the near future.
Earlier, the offer to rent the player until the end of the season was also made by the English Premier League team Newcastle, but the player wanted to stay in his homeland and chose Monaco.
As announced, Piquionne has signed a lease agreement with the new club until the end of the season, which includes a clause allowing Monaco to permanently acquire the forward after the championship. The player will be officially presented to the team's fans this Thursday.
"I am very happy to join Monaco," said Piquionne. "In the past few hours, I have experienced a lot of stress and now I am extremely satisfied with what has happened."
