Football News: Niko Kovac officially announced as new head coach of AS Monaco

Niko Kovac was officially presented as the new head coach of French Ligue 1 side AS Monaco. The former Bayern Munich and Croatia boss has been appointed on a three-year deal. Monaco, who finished the shortened 2019-2020 season in ninth place 28 points behind champions Paris Saint-Germain, sacked Robert Moreno after only seven months in charge. Kovac, who won the German Bundesliga and DFB-Pokal (German Cup) double with Bayern in the 2018-2019 season, becomes Monaco's fourth new manager in less than two years. Thierry Henry lasted just three months in-between Leonardo Jardim's two spells, with the Venezuelan sacked in December 2019 and replaced by Moreno.
