Aleksandr Golovin extends his AS Monaco contract!

AS Monaco have announced the extension of 26-year-old midfielder Aleksandr Golovin’s contract for a further two seasons. The Russian international is now linked with the Principality club until summer 2026.

The number 17 is currently enjoying one of his best seasons in Rouge et Blanc, and is a key member of Philippe Clement’s squad.

With six goals and six assists (seven in all competitions) in 24 matches in Ligue 1, the midfielder has made a significant contribution to AS Monaco’s progress, with the team currently third in the French Ligue 1 after 25 matches.

Apart from the first Ligue 1 match in Strasbourg (2-1) on August 6, for which he was suspended, Aleksandr Golovin has played in all of AS Monaco’s official matches this season.

The CSKA Moscow-trained player has been particularly in good form since the return of the competition in December (three goals, three assists) and was decisive in the 3-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain. He scored the only goal in AS Monaco’s victory over Stade Brestois on January 1, 2023, a superb technical move followed by an unstoppable shot, which was voted Ligue 1 goal of the month for January.

Having arrived in Monaco in the summer of 2018 following a 2018 FIFA World Cup in which he reached the quarterfinals with Russia (one goal, two assists), Aleksandr Golovin had previously played four seasons with CSKA Moscow.

After 113 matches with the Moscow outfit (13 goals, 11 assists), and a Russian league title in 2016, the midfielder joined the Principality. Aleksandr Golovin has now made 166 appearances for AS Monaco (23 goals, 32 assists) and is currently the club’s longest-serving player.

AS Monaco Sporting Director said, “Aleksandr is one of the most experienced players in the group. This extension shows an ambition to keep high performers to help us achieve our objectives. His work and his progression over the last two seasons, especially on the athletic point of view, make him a major asset for the Club. We are happy that he will continue the adventure with AS Monaco on a long term basis and we are sure that he will be an important element for the final sprint of the season.”

Aleksandr Golovin said, “I am very happy to continue my adventure with AS Monaco and I would like to thank the Club for this mark of confidence. I am very satisfied with this opportunity to be able to continue my progression here. The team is doing well in the league again this year and I am very motivated to continue to help to finish the season as high as possible and to achieve our objectives.”
