Monaco, June 28 (BNA): French football club Monaco signed today, Tuesday, attacking midfielder Takumi Minamino in a four-year deal with Liverpool.
The 27-year-old Japan international has scored 14 goals in 55 games in total for Liverpool after joining from Red Bull Salzburg, according to the Associated Press.
Despite winning three titles at Liverpool – including the Premier League title in 2020 and two domestic cups last season – Minamino has struggled to break into Jurgen Klopp’s star-studded side.
Monaco gave no financial details, but reports estimated the transfer fee at 15 million euros ($15.8 million).
Minamino is the second attacking player to leave the Champions League runners-up after Senegalese striker Sadio Mane joined Bayern Munich last week.
Attack-minded Monaco coach Philippe Clement finished third last season to reach the Champions League qualifying rounds.
