SEVILLA want to sign Liverpool outcast Takumi Minamino this summer with Reds chiefs demanding £9million, according to reports in Spain.
The Japan forward, 26, played just nine Premier League games in the first-half of the season.

Jurgen Klopp then allowed him to head to Southampton on loan for the remainder of 2020-21.
And now the Reds could sell Minamino permanently with LaLiga giants Sevilla keen, say Fichajes.
The Spaniards are claimed to have had an interest in the former RB Salzburg star since before his Anfield days.
And Sevilla have maintained their interest since his £7.25m move to Anfield in January 2020.
Minamino has played a total of 19 Premier League games in his one year at Liverpool, starting just three games.
The Japanese ace has mustered just one top-flight goal, in the 7-0 win at Crystal Palace on December 19.
Minamino went on to score on his Southampton debut in the 3-2 defeat away at Newcastle.
He also played in the 2-1 loss at home to Wolves at the weekend.

Meanwhile, a report in France by L’Equipe has claimed Liverpool tried – and failed – to win Kylian Mbappe over four years ago.
He joined Paris Saint-Germain from Monaco in 2017 and is on his way to becoming one of the world’s best players.
But Reds owner John W Henry reportedly tried to convince Mbappe to join with a two-hour meeting on his private jet.
