Claudio Ranieri is not expecting Monaco
to challenge for the Ligue 1 title this
season, despite their big-name
signings.
Dmitry Rybolovlev has funded the arrival
of 12 players since their promotion to
the top flight, including Radamel Falcao,
James Rodriguez and Joao Moutinho.
However, their Italian manager believes it will take time for them to reach the level of
last season's top three, and has called for patience ahead of the new campaign.
"Compete with PSG? I believe it is too early to ask such a question," Ranieri told
L'Equipe.
"PSG, Lyon and Marseille look more like teams than Monaco. So we need time. It will
be difficult to be champions this season.
"Give me some time. To me the most important thing is first to try to build the best
group possible."
