Maghnes Akliouche, 23-year-old attacking midfielder/winger for AS Monaco, was listed by the media as a target for Paris Saint-Germain for the 2024 summer transfer window, but he has extended his contract (from 2026 to 2028). PSG, however, is still reportedly interested in his future, while ASM has opened the door this time. On Ligue 1+, he hinted that he would stay in Monaco, without being very definitive.
“With the desire to play the whole season in Monaco? Yes of course, I’m here in Monaco. First match, here we go (smile).”
By half-heartedly confirming his desire to continue at AS Monaco, Maghnes Akliouche has primarily sought to put an end to persistent rumors surrounding his future. The 23-year-old, whose contract has been extended until 2028, reiterated his commitment to the Monaco project, while avoiding a categorical rejection of Parisian interest.
This nuance maintains a form of suspense that fuels the transfer market, especially since ASM has shown itself more willing to listen to offers than in the past. For PSG, always eager to strengthen its attacking wing with creative talents from French academy backgrounds, Akliouche remains a name to watch. But for now, the Principality can breathe easy: its jewel will remain on the Rock for at least one more season, presumably.
