AS Monaco is actively pursuing striker Mika Biereth as a key option following Folarin Balogun’s injury. The 21-year-old forward, previously with Arsenal and currently at Sturm Graz, has reportedly agreed on personal terms with Monaco. Discussions between the two clubs are underway to finalize a transfer fee.
With Balogun sidelined for approximately four months due to shoulder surgery, Monaco’s head coach Adi Hütter emphasized the urgent need for additional attacking options. The team has struggled offensively, recently suffering a 3-0 defeat to Arsenal in the Champions League and drawing against Reims in Ligue 1.
Currently, only two forwards are available, highlighting the necessity for immediate reinforcements. Biereth’s potential arrival could provide the firepower Monaco desperately needs as they aim to maintain competitiveness in both domestic and European competitions.
