The veteran Italian striker, who joined the French capital club on a free transfer from Bologna in January, wasted no time making his mark.

With Paris FC already ahead through Jonathan Ikoné’s fourth-minute opener, Immobile doubled the lead on eight minutes, breaking free in the centre of the box and firing a perfect first-time right-foot drive into the roof of the net.

The former Lazio man then turned provider, assisting Ikoné’s second goal on 21 minutes to give Paris FC an unassailable 3-0 lead before half-time.

Ikoné, who spent three seasons at Fiorentina between 2022 and 2025, was outstanding throughout and capped a superb individual display with a brace of his own.

Monaco, who came into the match sitting fifth in Ligue 1, managed a brief response through Folarin Balogun just before the break, but any hopes of a comeback were swiftly extinguished in the second half.

Italy Under-21 international Luca Koleosho, a player firmly in the plans of whoever takes over the senior Azzurri coaching role, added a fourth to complete a comprehensive victory and cap a thoroughly miserable evening for Monaco.

The result leaves Monaco stranded on 49 points, while Paris FC’s momentum under Antoine Kombouaré continues to build.
