What future for Ibrahima Konaté? For the time being, it is difficult to say, but the future of the French international (21 selections) continues to speak in recent months. Linked to Liverpool until June 2026, the 25 -year -old defender remains coveted by many European stables. If we had recently told you that PSG had previously shown no interest in the former RB Leipzig player, Real Madrid – determined to strengthen – could well take action in the coming weeks.
An interest logically alarming the management of the Mersey club, which is more after the departure acted of Trent Alexander-Arnold. At the end of the contract with the Reds, the English piston recently announced that he was going to leave the Liverpuldian training at the end of the season. In the process of joining Real Madrid, the English international (33 selections, 4 goals) – which could even wear the Madrid jersey at the next Club World Cup – should, as such, be replaced by Jeremie Frimpong, today under the colors of Bayer Leverkusen.
Konaté has still not decided
However, Marca said this Friday that the Reds board does not digest the choice of TAA and now fears a similar scenario with Konaté. Arrived on the side of Anfield in July 2021, the Paris native did not, in fact, still not extend his contract with the Champion of England, despite several renewal proposals in recent weeks. A blockage that does not fail to worry the high spheres of Liverpool, aware of the Madrid interest and the contribution of the right -hander of 1m94 within the central hinge of the Reds.
Author of two goals and two assists in 40 matches in all competitions, the number 5 of Liverpool remains, in fact, a pillar of the defense and a possible departure would therefore represent a terrible loss for the team of Arne Slot. Recently questioned about his future, the principal concerned had more or less booted in touch ensuring that “Everything that happens in relation to my contractual situation are my agents, my advisers who take care of that”. One thing is certain, the Reds will now do everything to retain the ex-Sochalien and thus keep a competitive workforce.
