Liverpool make fresh offer to keep Konate | OneFootball

Liverpool have reportedly offered Ibrahim Konate a new contract as they seek to secure his long-term future beyond 2026.

According to FootMercato, the French centre-back has yet to respond to the latest offer from the Merseyside club.

With his current deal set to expire in 2026, the Reds are eager to avoid a repeat of Trent Alexander-Arnold’s situation.

Alexander-Arnold left the club on a free transfer this summer, and Liverpool are working to prevent another high-profile departure.

Konate has attracted interest from Real Madrid, and the club is a strong draw for the player.

Liverpool strengthen squad while waiting on Konate decision

The 26-year-old has built a strong reputation in European football and is a key part of the French national team set-up.

He is a regular starter for Liverpool, forming a solid partnership alongside Virgil van Dijk.

His performances have garnered interest from elsewhere, with Madrid the biggest threat to Liverpool’s plans to keep him.

Konate’s decision will be crucial for the club as they continue to prepare for the 2025/26 campaign.

Liverpool have already made several high-profile signings to strengthen their squad this summer.

Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Armin Pecsi and Hugo Ekitike have all joined the club this summer.

The arrival of young talent has increased optimism around Anfield, and they are determined to keep their core players.

Liverpool are still hopeful that Konate will accept the new terms and commit his future to the club.
