[EN] This work presents a new search for magnetic monopoles using data taken with the ANTARES neutrino telescope over a period of 10 years (January 2008 to December 2017). Compared to previous ANTARES searches, this analysis uses a run-by-run simulation strategy, with a larger exposure as well as a new simulation of magnetic monopoles taking into account the Kasama, Yang and Goldhaber model for their interaction cross-section with matter. No signal compatible with the passage of relativistic magnetic monopoles is observed, and upper limits on the ¿ux of magnetic monopoles with ß = v/c 0.55, are presented. For ultra-relativistic magnetic monopoles the ¿ux limit is ~ 7 × 10¿18 cm¿2 s¿1 sr .
