Monaco coach Ricardo: Freddy Adu stays

AS Monaco coach Ricardo insists Freddy Adu is in his plans.

The young American striker has struggled to make an impact at ASM this season and has been linked with a return to MLS.

But Ricardo said: "Freddy is evolving in Monaco. He will be staying with us until the end of the season."

Adu, who is on loan from Benfica, has only made nine appearances for Monaco since joining them in July.
