The relationship between the midfielder's family and the
Ligue 1 side turned sour as they demanded for the player's release.
But Monaco held firm on their position towards Hannibal, whose contract does not expire until 2021.
The French side wanted to turn a profit on Hannibal, who has been linked with Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Lyon, instead of terminating his current deal and allowing him to walk on a free.
