AS Monaco coach Leonardo Jardim admits he's delighted with the form of Islam Slimani.

The striker is on-loan at ASM from Leicester City this season.

And Jardim is excited by his new-look partnership of Slimani and Wissam Ben Yedder - both of whom struck in the 3-2 defeat of Rennes.

"Ben Yedder-Slimani? It's a beautiful wedding. One is strength, power and depth.

"The other is the technical finesse coupled with a great sense of purpose," enthused Jardim.
