“It depends on the situations whether they are interesting for the club or not. The most important thing for me is that the players have their heads here and that’s the case,” continued the Monaco boss.
Clement is not surprised that other clubs are interested in his players: “I’ve been in Monaco for eleven months now and in the past six months there has been a lot of interest in many players. It’s nothing new because it’s a project with many young players, so there is also interest in the transfer market. As a coach, you’re always happy when the transfer market ends. We’ll see.”
