Paris Brunner stole the headlines on Sunday evening by netting both goals in Monaco’s clean-sheet win over Marseille. According to Ligue 1+, Filipe Luis did not hold back when assessing his striker’s display on the pitch.
“Brunner? I am very happy with the face of the team. He is a fabulous player. He put in a fine performance and a great match. On the pitch, there is this desire to play with passion. He is a starter, that’s because he deserves it, but the team played a great match. I hope he can continue like this,” the Monaco coach explained on Ligue 1+.
Managing a Youthful Roster in High-Level Football
Beyond individual brilliance, Filipe Luis emphasized the broader dynamics within his squad, pointing out that managing young talent requires steady reinforcement and patience.

Looking Ahead to the Transfer Market and Upcoming Fixtures
Squad composition could still shift before the deadline.
“It’s very good to start the season like this. Now, we always want to win. There are two, three days of the transfer window that are going to be decisive. You have to take it match by match. We are off to a good start and afterwards, there will be tough matches,” Filipe Luis stated.
