First-team opportunities are expected to be limited, with Paris Brunner making an impressive start to the campaign and Folarin Balogun, Mika Biereth and Matthis Abline also competing for places in attack.
Konate will therefore move to Ligue 2 side Laval in search of regular playing time and valuable experience.
Monaco still consider the youngster an important prospect for the future, meaning the loan agreement will not include an option to buy.
He joins a Laval side currently sitting bottom of the Ligue 2 standings and looking to turn their season around.
