The 2020-21 campaign delivered a powerful resurgence for Monaco as Les Monegasques secured a spectacular 3rd-place finish in Ligue 1 under the guidance of manager Niko Kovač, returning the club to the European stage. Leading the charge was the prolific captain Wissam Ben Yedder, whose 20 league goals proved decisive in a campaign built on consistency and a memorable 12-match unbeaten run that demonstrated their title-challenging ambition. It was a vital year that marked Monaco's return to the top tier of French football and remains a defining chapter in the club's modern history.
