MONACO — French club Monaco hired Adi Hütter as its new coach on a two-year contract on Tuesday.
Hütter replaces Belgian coach Philippe Clement, who was fired last month after the club finished a disappointing sixth in the French league.
The 53-year-old Hütter is a former midfielder with the Austrian national team and previously coached Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Mönchengladbach in the German Bundesliga.
Prior to that he guided Red Bull Salzburg to the Austrian league and cup double before leading Young Boys Bern to the Swiss league title in 2018.
“Over the last few years, Adi has proved himself in a number of different league,” Monaco's sporting director Thiago Scuro said. “This wealth of experience combined with his leadership qualities and lively, forward-looking style, is exactly what we are looking for.”
