Filipe Luis, a Brazilian footballer who recently joined AS Monaco after helping Flamengo win both the Brazilian championship and the Copa Libertadores, has spoken about the club's goals in the UEFA Conference League. Monaco is currently at the top of Ligue 1 and is set to host Toulouse in the sixth round of the league. The team secured a place in the league phase of the Conference League after qualifying from the play-offs, a significant achievement for the club. In an interview with After Foot on RMC, Luis acknowledged the strength of the competition they will face. He mentioned teams like Brighton, who are third in the Premier League, and Fribourg, which reached the Europa League final last season. "There are many big clubs here," he said. "But you're right, we have a real possibility: to fight for this title. Yes, I agree with you." However, Luis also recognized the challenge of winning the Conference League. "Whether we have to win, that's another question," he said. "It's very difficult to be champion. We have to show that we deserve this trophy, it's a really wonderful trophy. But it's a big opportunity for us to go after something beautiful this season. I take this competition very seriously, at least personally. I hope my players will follow me." During the league phase of the Conference League, which runs from October 15 to December 17, Monaco will face several teams including CSKA Sofia, Fribourg, Nordsjaelland, Heart of Midlothian, Brighton, and the Lincoln Red Imps from Gibraltar. The group stage will test the team's ability to compete at a high level against a variety of opponents from different European leagues.
