Monaco unlikely to extend Breel Embolo's contract
Breel Embolo's (28) long-term future at AS Monaco has been uncertain for some time. The Swiss striker is clearly happy at the Principality club, however, his deal with Les Monégasques expires at the end of next season. There was little clarity provided by Monaco CEO Thiago Scuro during an interview attended by Get French Football News. 'Let's see what happens this summer […] he still has a contract. He could extend or he could leave,' said Scuro, leaving both possibilities very much open. Advertisement Earlier in the season, Embolo expressed a desire to extend at Monaco, and he has since struck up a fine partnership with new striker Mika Biereth, both on and off the pitch. However, Nice-Matin understands that Monaco will not look to renew the Swiss striker's deal, which expires at the end of next season. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that Embolo will leave this summer, as the publication points out. He remains happy at the club and therefore could stay for next season. GFFN | Luke Entwistle

Venezia opt against signing former Monaco captain Wissam Ben Yedder
Venezia have opted against signing former AS Monaco captain and France international Wissam Ben Yedder (34), according to a report from Gianluca Di Marzio The centre-forward is a free agent since the expiry of his contract with Les Monégasques. The former France international has not played a game since May but this hasn't kept him out of the headlines. In November, the forward was found guilty of sexual assault while intoxicated. He avoided prison time despite the guilty verdict. Clubs have even shown interest, despite other judicial cases still being open. Ben Yedder was at the Venezia game last weekend and he had been expected to sign on a free transfer. That will now not happen. The decision not to sign the former Sevilla man is one made by the ownership of Venezia, currently 19th in Serie A, and one influenced by off-field matters, Di Marzio understands. Ben Yedder's search for a new club therefore goes on. GFFN | Luke Entwistle
