"The club that finished in third place in the previous Ligue 1 championship is considered the main contender to acquire forward Mauro Esposito. Esposito shone in the previous Serie A championship by scoring 16 goals and since then has managed to play in five matches for the Italian national team. There are rumors in Italy that Monaco is ready to pay 8 million pounds for Esposito, but the player himself is reportedly not inclined to leave Italy, as he believes that playing in Serie A will give him a chance to break into the Italian national team, which will be participating in next year's World Championships in Germany. It is worth mentioning that last summer Monaco also acquired two forwards from Serie A - Javier Ernerto Chevanton and Mohamed Kallon."
