Takumi Minamino: Departure

Liverpool have agreed to let 27 year-old, Takumi Minamino go at a fee of around €15 million plus add ons but only subject to a medical. 

The Japanese forward joined Liverpool in January 2020 for £7.25 million and has failed to maintain a starting position due to strong competition. 

He has played 55 games and has scored a total of 14 goals, including 10 goals in 22 games last season. 

It will be sad to see the forward go as he is a good player and still has a few years ahead of him. However, with the strong competition of Salah, Firmino, Mane and Jota in recent seasons, he hasn’t really had a chance to break into the starting eleven. Plus, the new signings have put him further down the pecking order. 

I wish luck to Minamino at Monaco and I would hope he finds a starting place in the Ligue 1 side.
