Towards the end of the transfer window, AS Monaco had reached a provisional agreement with Simon Ebonog, a French and Cameroonian midfielder. The club had prioritized the Le Havre player as a replacement for Lamine Camara. The deal was automatically cancelled in the final hours because Camara's departure did not proceed. The 22-year-old Ebonog is still on Monaco's shortlist, and the club is continuing to monitor him. Monaco faces competition from several teams in England and Spain that have also shown definite interest. A source close to the situation confirmed that a move could occur as soon as the winter. Simon Ebonog, who is under contract with Le Havre until June 2029, has a valuation of 4.5 million euros according to Transfermarkt. He has earned two caps for the France U20 team.
