After struggling for game time in his second season at the club, he spent the second half of the 2020/21 season on loan at Premier League club Southampton as he tried to establish himself in England.
Despite signs of early promise, Minamino struggled to establish himself as a first-team regular after he joined Liverpool from RB Salzburg for a fee of £7.65million in January 2020.
Liverpool will reluctantly let go of Minamino who proved how useful he could be last season.
According to a recruitment source close to Football Insider, the Japan international was presented with an offer from Bruno Lage's team but decided he would prefer a move to Ligue 1 with Monaco instead.
Seen as the go-to man in the early rounds, Minamino scored 10 goals in all competitions, many of which were crucial.
