MONACO - Jardim to stay

Published on: 04 June 2016

Monaco manger Leonardo Jardim will remain in charge next season despite failing to secure an automatic spot in the Champions League, according to AFP.

Monaco had a disasterous end of last season, including a 6-1 loss at Lyon that ended their hopes of finishing second in Ligue 1 and of sealing an automatic Champions League spot.

Club vice-chairman Vasim Vasilyev said he, Jardim and chairman Dmitry Rybolovlev sat down on Friday to make plans for next season.

"We analysed and listened to his ideas. We have chosen stability and continuity and Leonardo Jardim retains our confidence to lead this project," Vasilyev told AFP. 

"He showed his desire and his ambition. He is prepared 200 percent," said Vasilyev.

However, he added that failing to win a trophy and losing second in the table to Lyon had been "a real disappointment."
