Monaco found a replacement for Radamel Falka, who ended the season due to a serious knee injury.
The media speculated that Zenit striker Hulk or Mirko Vučinić would join the ranks of the "princes", but in the end Dimitar Berbatov arrived.
The Fulham player has signed a contract with Monaco until the end of the season.
The Bulgarian national team's contract with the English club expires in June, so there is a possibility that he could then sign a multi-year contract with the French as a free agent.
Berbatov has been in Fuilam since August 31, 2012, and scored 50 goals in 19 matches.
He started his career in CSKA Sofia, and then played for Bayern Leverkusen, Tottenham and Manchester United.
