In a surprising turn of events, A.S. Monaco has announced the termination of Vignesh Jayanth, the club’s Head of Fitness Technical Manager, with immediate effect. The decision comes amid growing concerns over internal disagreements regarding the team’s fitness and training protocols.
Sources within the club revealed that Jayanth’s departure was precipitated by a series of disputes between him and the coaching staff over the implementation of the fitness programs. These disagreements reportedly led to inconsistencies in the players’ training regimens, which some believe have contributed to the recent spate of injuries affecting key players.
In an official statement, A.S. Monaco expressed their gratitude for Jayanth’s contributions, stating, “We appreciate the dedication and hard work that Vignesh Jayanth has shown during his tenure with A.S. Monaco. However, due to irreconcilable differences regarding our fitness and conditioning strategies, we have mutually agreed to part ways.”
Jayanth, who joined Monaco in 2020, was instrumental in revamping the club’s fitness infrastructure and introduced several innovative training techniques aimed at enhancing player performance and reducing injury risks. His methods initially received praise, but over time, differences in opinion regarding their effectiveness and implementation grew more pronounced.
The club has not yet announced a replacement for Jayanth, but sources indicate that the search for a new Head of Fitness Technical Manager is already underway. In the interim, the current fitness staff will continue to oversee the team’s training sessions.
Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how this development impacts the team’s performance in the coming weeks. A.S. Monaco currently sits in a crucial phase of the season, with several key fixtures ahead that will test the resilience and fitness of the squad.
Jayanth has yet to make a public statement regarding his departure, but it is expected that he will address the situation in the coming days.
