Eliot Matazo Transfer from Monaco to Hull City
Eliot Matazo, a 22-year-old Belgian midfielder, has been transferred from Monaco to Hull City. He was very little used by Adi Hütter at Monaco and has signed a three and a half year contract with Hull City, lasting until June 2027. The transfer occurred during the winter transfer window for just under 4 million euros.
Eliot Matazo, who joined Monaco at 16 from Anderlecht, has never really managed to establish himself at the club. After being loaned to Royal Antwerp for the second half of the previous season, the Belgian midfielder is now transferred to Hull City. Hull City is currently 22nd in the Championship. AS Monaco announced the transfer, thanking Eliot for his time at the club and wishing him success in his future career.
Eliot Matazo has faced challenges at AS Monaco following Philippe Clement's departure. After returning from a loan at Antwerp, he managed to play only 181 minutes over seven matches, prompting the need for a winter transfer. Hull City, a club in the English Championship, expressed interest in Matazo and reportedly reached an agreement with Monaco for a permanent transfer valued at approximately 2.5 million euros. Hull City is offering Matazo a four-year contract. Although he has had a video conversation with Hull, Matazo has not yet given his final approval. However, it appears likely that he will accept the offer, as he has no other proposals and is confronted with the possibility of limited playing time at Monaco.

Hull City is reportedly contemplating the acquisition of Eliot Matazo. Sacha Tavolieri has indicated that Hull City has recently expressed interest in Matazo. While no official offer has been presented to either Monaco or the player concerning personal terms, the situation remains one to watch as the English club might solidify their interest in the near future. A loan move appears to be the most likely option. Matazo is under contract with Monaco until 2026. Once regarded as a top Belgian talent, Matazo has faced challenges in securing playing time recently, having only accumulated 181 minutes on the field this season across Ligue 1 and the Coupe de France. Hull City, currently positioned 22nd in the English Championship, could provide him with more regular playing opportunities, alongside familiar faces such as Steven Alzate and Chris Bedia.
