On 3 August 2018, Monsalve moved abroad for the first time in his career, signing for FC Twente in the Dutch Eerste Divisie. After one season with the Tukkers, he signed with NAC Breda from the same country.

On 27 January 2021, Monsalve switched teams and countries again, joining Levski Sofia in Bulgaria.

On 22 June 2021, he completed his move to Polish I liga club ŁKS Łódź on a three-year contract. Monsalve made 13 Ekstraklasa appearances in the 2023–24 season before returning to Spain on 4 January 2024, signing a half-year deal with Eldense.
