Ibrahima Konaté in Real Madrid, it is the rumor that has been circulating in recent days! While the Madrid defense is in the reconstruction phase with in particular the arrivals of Dean Huijsen and Alvaro Carreras, the French international would also be targeted.
Linked to Liverpool until June 2026, a departure from the tricolor defender would not be surprising. However, a transfer to Real Madrid would be conditioned by three elements as revealed by the media Bernabéu Digital.
To be able to hire Ibrahima Konaté, the club of the Spanish capital will have to separate from a defender. A departure from David Alaba, at the end of the contract in 2026 or Antonio Rugiger, although poorly committed, could unlock the situation. In addition, Madrid must also ensure that the player does not extend his contract with Liverpool in order to arrive free next summer. And finally, if a transfer of the player is possible this summer, it should not exceed 35 million euros.
Konaté only wants Real Madrid
For his part, the player would have expressed his desire to join Real Madrid to one of his teammates in the French team who is none other than the new number 10 Madrilen Kylian Mbappé, as revealed by Central Defensa.
According to this source, the player will plan to arrive free after his contract next June. The media then indicates that faced with the emergency, the Madrid coach, Xabi Alonso could accelerate the transaction and ask his leaders to have the central defender signed this summer.
