Idea

A monomorphism of concrete groups from G to H is a faithful pointed map BH →∗ BG. Recall that a map is said to be faithful if it induces embeddings on identity types. In particular, any faithful pointed map BH →∗ BG induces an embedding ΩBH → ΩBG, i.e., an inclusion of the underlying groups of a concrete group.
