At Valdebebas, the defensive project remains an absolute priority for the coming season. THE
real Madrid scans the market carefully, aware that certain preferred options could escape it. Long focused on Dayot Upamecano (Bayern), the Madrid club recently had to review its plans in the face of an imminent extension of the French international. Result: the sports management reopens dormant files, with the idea of attracting a profile already experienced at the very high European level and capable of quickly integrating into a demanding locker room.
Konaté at Real Madrid, let’s talk about it again
According to information from
Matteo MorettoReal has resumed contact with the entourage ofIbrahima Konate. The defender of
Liverpoolwhose contractual situation remains unclear, has seen discussions for an extension drag on for several months. Madrid has inquired again about his availability, taking advantage of a favorable context while negotiations between the player and his club are not moving forward.
Confirmed French international, powerful and experienced in the Champions League, Konaté meets several criteria sought by the Merengues. At 26 years old, he represents a rare balance between maturity and room for improvement. His arrival would also allow Real to strengthen an already well-established French contingent, while securing the defensive axis in the medium term, without necessarily incurring a disproportionate expense.
Nothing has been decided yet, but the relaunch of this file confirms Madrid’s vigilance on the market. If Liverpool fail to lock down their defender, Madrid could accelerate in the coming months. A credible, coherent option… and which would revive the idea of a fourth Frenchman in the white jersey.
