AS Monaco has confirmed that guard Matthew Strazel has penned a new contract at the club, with his new deal running until the end of the 2026-27 season.
Strazel (1.84 meters, 22 years old) averaged 4.4 points and 1.8 rebounds in 17 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague games in a backup role for Monaco last season, his second campaign in the principality.
This summer, he was a part of the France side that won a silver medal at the 2024 Olympic Games.
Since joining Monaco from LDLC ASVEL Villeurbanne in the summer of 2022, Strazel has been able to learn from the team's lead guards, most notably the EuroLeague's all-time top scorer, Mike James.
This coming campaign, he will also get to play alongside the EuroLeague's assists king, Nick Calathes.
Strazel's first season at Monaco in 2022-23 saw him post 2.5 points per game across 25 EuroLeague appearances as the club reached the Final Four for the first time.
His EuroLeague career began with ASVEL, where he played 66 times between 2019 and 2022.
To date, Strazel has appeared in 108 EuroLeague games and has career averages of 3.5 points and 1.4 assists in 12:40 minutes per night.
Domestically, the talented guard has won four straight French League titles – two with ASVEL and two with Monaco – as well as the French Cup with ASVEL in 2020-21 and with Monaco in 2022-23.
