And Isimat-Mirin, though not yet officially a Monaco player, told Telefoot: “I want to grow with [Monaco].

“I could not refuse such a project so I just decided to go.”
Monaco have embarked on a staggering spending spree in recent weeks, and have already secured the signings of Radamel Falcao, Joao Moutinho, James Rodriguez and Ricardo Carvalho.

AS Monaco push to sign highly rated defender Nicolas Isimat-Mirin

Ambitious Ligue 1 side Monaco are eyeing up a bid for Valenciennes centre-back and France Under-21 international Nicolas Isimat-Mirin.

Isimat-Mirin has seen his stock rise during the 2012/13 campaign, registering a total 31 appearances under head coach Daniel Sanchez and scoring a goal along the way.

The youngster’s bags of potential and uncanny defensive abilities may well have piqued the interest of Monaco, who are now believed to be pondering a move for the 21-year-old Frenchman.

True enough, according to Le 10 Sport, an announcement is about to be made soon about Isimat-Mirin’s transfer to the Stade Louis II, with the transfer fee believed to be in the range of €5m.
