Chelsea defender handed fresh January transfer revival amid AS Monaco 'disappointment'

Malang Sarr could be set to end his difficult loan spell at AS Monaco to make another temporary switch to Sevilla. The defender has struggled to become a regular member of Philippe Clement's side this season after moving to France in the summer.

The 23-year-old has appeared 12 times in all competitions for Monaco, starting only six times in all competitions. The loan switch to the Stade Louis II was intended to provide the Chelsea defender an opportunity to play regular first team football, but it ultimately hasn't worked out that way.

Back in December, Sarr's agent Federico Pastorello acknowledged that his client's time in France could finish earlier than expected, despite insisting that Monaco are happy to make the switch permanent. "He is a boy I would see very well in Italy. At Monaco his playing time is limited, but they are happy with him, we will see if they will let him leave as soon as offers arrive," he told Tuttomercatoweb.
