Eliesse Ben Seghir Rising Star Nominated for Player of the Month
At just 19 years old, Eliesse Ben Seghir is lighting up football pitches across Ligue 1 and Europe. The attacking midfielder from AS Monaco, often nicknamed the "Young Lion of the Atlas," has established himself as one of the most promising talents in football. His outstanding performances in November have earned him a nomination for Ligue 1's Player of the Month award, alongside two other top stars from the league.
Since the start of the 2024-2025 season, Ben Seghir has consistently delivered remarkable performances. With 14 matches under his belt, he has scored four goals and provided three assists to his teammates. November proved to be a decisive month, with his contributions playing a significant role in Monaco's success. He was instrumental in victories against Strasbourg (1-3) and Brest (3-2), with two goals and an assist in the league during this period. Already crowned MVP of the month by Monaco's supporters, he now eyes national recognition with the prestigious UNFP Trophy.
Ben Seghir's impact extends to the Champions League, where he continues to impress. A crucial member of Monaco's squad, he has scored once in the competition, helping the club secure their current eighth-place standing with ten points. His technical skills, speed, and constant threat to opponents have made him a cornerstone of Adi Hütter's team.
On the international stage, Ben Seghir's prodigious talent shines brightly. Representing the Lions of the Atlas, he brings energy and creativity to Walid Regragui's team. Deployed primarily on the left wing, he stands out for his agility and ability to unsettle opposing defenses. With three goals and one assist for the Moroccan national team, he is emerging as a key player in a new generation carrying the hopes of Morocco's football future.
The nomination for Ligue 1's Player of the Month award in November is well-deserved recognition for a player on a meteoric rise. Whether or not he wins this accolade, one thing is certain: Eliesse Ben Seghir is a talent whose star is just beginning to shine, promising a bright future for both AS Monaco and Moroccan football.
