Monaco’s ambitious basketball project has collapsed. After successful seasons in the EuroLeague, the club ran into financial difficulties, left the competition and lost the right to play in France’s top division.

The team will now continue its journey in France’s third league. Monaco sought a way out through a conciliation procedure organized by CNOSF, while a last-minute investor pledged 10 million euros for the 2026-27 season.

Josh Hart, the New York Knicks forward who became an NBA champion last season, reacted on social media with open mockery. “Monaco is a complete circus,” Hart wrote about the former EuroLeague club.

The EuroLeague will have 20 teams next season, with Istanbul’s Beşiktaş taking Monaco’s place.
