Administrator Stan Posted June 8, 2022 Administrator Share Posted June 8, 2022 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/61730890 Quote Liverpool forward Takumi Minamino is attracting interest from a number of clubs, with the Reds prepared to sell the Japan international for a fee in the region of £17m. Leeds, Wolves, Fulham, Southampton and Monaco are understood to be admirers. Minamino made the move to Liverpool from Red Bull Salzburg in 2019. The 27-year-old joined Southampton on loan in February 2021 and made 10 appearances before returning to Anfield for the 2021-22 campaign. As Liverpool's top scorer in domestic cup competitions last season, Minamino played a crucial part in helping Jurgen Klopp's side win the FA Cup and League Cup. However, he made just 11 appearances in the Premier League as Liverpool finished one point behind Manchester City. Since joining the club, he has scored 14 times in 55 appearances.

6666 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Can't see who'd be willing to pay £17m. Maybe Bournemouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 17m is a very fair price. He’s been really good for us when called upon this season. It’s a shame to see him going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 I'd take him, especially as Marsch has worked with him before, but I don't think he's justified a £10m price hike from when Liverpool got him. Its all well and good scoring goals in the League Cup and FA Cup against lower league sides but there was that underwhelming loan at Southampton that still lingers.

From what I remember he did really well at Southampton? They wanted to buy him outright infact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Absolutely shite, surprised that he's lasted so long at Liverpool to be honest. £17m would be good business, and someone will be daft enough to spend it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMike Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 He'd be decent for plenty of Premier League sides. Playing the part he has done for us in the domestic cups shouldn't be sniffed at. It's that kind of strength in depth you want to get you through the early rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the eyes of Saints fans down here. Faded out of games too much but because he popped up with a couple goals its glossed over. A quick scan online also emphasises this from a Liverpool perspective https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-southampton-transfer-takumi-minamino-20521826.amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet they'd settle for just getting their money back plus an extra million or so. 10m would probably get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, but I'm quite content to keep him (as long as us signing a new midfielder is possible without needing to sell him) considering this past year was one of the few years we actually had any depth up front and he was a big part of that. With Mane and Origi on their way out and likely Nunez coming in but being new to the league, I suspect there would still be plenty of opportunity for Minamino as a squad player. And after this very long season + all of the bullshit that's going to be coming with a mid-season WC... I think there's good cause to want to remain having good depth up front.

Dave Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 I could see him at somebody like Wolves but I'd be very hesitant to spend more than 10/11m on him based on his sporadic appearances for Liverpool and average loan spell at Southampton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand, Leeds United are favourites to buy Minamino. I think he'd be a good addition to the club to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
