Liverpool made an approach for Monaco's Maghnes Akliouche during the summer transfer windowFormer Liverpool star Takumi Minamino has already provided insight on what the club could expect from Maghnes Akliouche. He has since emerged as a target for Paris Saint-Germain, who have reportedly had three offers for Akliouche rejected.It remains to be seen whether the France international will sign for Liverpool and join summer arrival Victor Munoz in revamping the club’s wide options.

However, ex-Liverpool star Minamino has previously given Akliouche his seal of approval.“When I arrived at the club, I noticed him straight away, he was the best young player in the team,” Minamino told Monaco’s club website in December 2024. I am sure he will have a good future so I am happy to be able to play with him.”Minamino was a rotational option throughout his time at Liverpool but played alongside several iconic forwards for the Reds.

Shortly after Minamino signed for Monaco in 2022, Jurgen Klopp praised what the Japan international, who made 55 Liverpool appearances and won the 2020 Premier League title, had brought to the club."We miss him honestly. "We should not forget, as an offensive player coming to Liverpool in a time when the settled front three were Mane, Firmino, Salah; the new signing was Diogo Jota -- it's not like you have to be a bad player to not be in the first lineup."No, you have to be a world-class player to be around [the starting XI] and to be the next coming on, so Taki [Minamino] did that incredibly well for us."FOLLOW OUR LIVERPOOL FC FACEBOOK PAGE!
