Filipe Luis moves from Flamengo to Monaco

Overview

On 6 July 2026 AS Monaco announced the hiring of former Brazilian left‑back Filipe Luis as head coach on a contract through June 2028, replacing Sébastien Pocognoli after a season that left the club out of the Champions League.

A week later Flamengo president Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap) clarified that the Brazilian club had already decided to dismiss Luis prior to an 8‑0 loss, citing a poor Serie A start. He defended the decision as an institutional one, introduced new coach Leonardo Jardim, and wished Luis success in his new role at Monaco.

The two reports trace the same transition: Filipe Luis’s departure from Flamengo and immediate appointment at Monaco, while both clubs address the coaching change from their own perspectives.
