Ibrahima Konate is facing the possibility of leaving Liverpool and Trent Alexander-Arnold's heel to join Real Madrid this summer.
Konate on Liverpool leaving
This summer, Liverpool operates active on Techmart with remarkable contracts. However, the Anfield team left Trent Alexander-Arnold to join Real Madrid in the form of free transfer.
Most likely after Trent, Liverpool will lose another defender, also to Real Madrid – it is Ibrahima Konate. Accordingly, the French player is said to refuse to extend Liverpool's extension to dock Real Madrid.
Ibrahima Konate has only one year to contract with Liverpool and now Arne Slot's team is trying to find a way to keep this player. Liverpool is in a difficult position if it is impossible to renew with Konate, The Kop will lose this defender.

But for Konate to leave Anfield this summer is also a very risky decision. Because the Marc Guhi deal to Crystal Palace has not been completed and if Konate to Real, Liverpool will definitely be forced at the Marc Guhi deal.
On the Real Madrid side, this team is completely serious with the addition of defenders in the summer transfer period this year. Because the central defenders of Los Blancos are only Rudiger and Dean Huijsen are creating somewhat peace of mind in the fans. Alaba has just been involved in an injury and Militao is no longer himself after two broken ligaments.
The ominous information with Liverpool fans is the discussion with Liverpool who have been deadlocked in recent months. Real Madrid is said to be an eye on Konate on the form of free transfer after recruiting Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Even in the past week, there was information that an unnamed club from Saudi contacted Konate through the representative to express interest in signing a contract with the former RB Leipzig star this summer.
But Konate refused to sit at the negotiating table and instead confirmed the commitment to stay in Europe, where he wanted to continue playing at the highest level. Currently Liverpool is racing with time to be able to keep Konate, avoiding the loss of this defender next year.
According to The Sun, Liverpool is considering signing a contract with Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi, who is also interested by Arsenal.
According to Foot Mercato, Liverpool opened negotiations to sign contracts with striker Jean-Philippe Mateta of Crystal Palace in the summer of 2025.
