Takumi Minamino has been catching the eye with his performances for Monaco this season.

The 28-year-old Japan international moved from Liverpool for £15.5 million in the summer of 2022.

After a difficult first season, he has flourished under new manager Adi Hutter, who took over in July, and whom the attacker briefly played under at Salzburg.

Minamino has helped propel Monaco to the top of Ligue 1 after eight games played with 3 goals and 3 assists.
