AS Monaco's Stefan Mitrović has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a knee injury.

The Serbian forward was replaced in the starting lineup by Brazilian striker Bruno Medeiros on Tuesday night, but he could not continue after just 45 minutes due to the injury.

Mitrovic, who joined Monaco from Atalanta in January, had made three appearances this season and scored twice in his debut at home to Strasbourg.

His absence will be a blow for Monaco, who currently sit fifth in Ligue 1 and are still in contention for a top-four finish.

It is unclear how long Mitrovic's injury will keep him out, but it is likely that he will miss the rest of the season.

Meanwhile, Medeiros will look to step up and fill the void left by Mitrovic's absence.

He has only played once before as a starter, but he showed promise during his time at Monaco's reserve team.

However, it remains to be seen whether he can replicate that form against stronger opposition.

Overall, Mitrovic's injury is a setback for Monaco, but they will need to find ways to cope without him if they want to compete for a top-four finish.

In the meantime, fans will have to wait and see how Medeiros performs in Mitrovic's place.
