Insider Fabrizio Romano reported that Madrid's "Real" club is interested in Liverpool's central defender Ibrahima Konate. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The "Royal Club" considered the possibility of purchasing the French player last summer, but the "Reds" decided not to let him go. Konate's current contract expires in the middle of next year, and it is likely that "Real" wants to take advantage of this situation.
According to Romano's information, the prestigious Spanish club maintains its interest in the player and sees him as one of the priority transfer targets for next year. However, the transfer may happen only if the player does not sign a new contract with Liverpool.
The management of the Merseyside club continues negotiations on a new deal with Konate. Talks between the parties have been ongoing for a long time, but so far there is no positive outcome.
Since the contract issue has not yet been resolved, it is difficult to draw a definite conclusion about the player's future. If an agreement between the club and the player is successfully reached, Konate may stay at Liverpool.
Otherwise, the likelihood of him moving to Real is high. This transfer is expected to attract significant attention in the football world.
