Liverpool is planning to extend the contract of central defender Ibrahima Konate. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The current contract of the player will expire next summer. Real Madrid could take advantage of this situation.
The La Liga team wants to either buy the player at a low price during the transfer window or sign him as a free agent after the 2025/26 season. According to journalistic sources, Liverpool has made a new, improved offer to Konate.
Previously, it was reported that the central defender is ready to extend the contract if the club offers favorable terms. Ibrahima Konate has participated in 132 matches for the team since joining Liverpool from RB Leipzig in 2021.
Last season, the 26-year-old player helped the team under Arne Slot to win the English Premier League championship. Liverpool aims to retain the defender's services and further strengthen the team.
The contract issue is expected to be resolved soon.
