Liverpool to Offer Real Madrid, PSG Target New Contract Amid Major Decision Looming | OneFootball

Liverpool center back Ibrahima Konaté has yet to agree to a contract extension this summer, sparking transfer rumors. Both PSG and Real Madrid have been linked to the defender.

Diario AS previously reported that Real Madrid is interested but only if Liverpool lowers their asking price. The Spanish club is said to be willing to offer between €20 million and €25 million, while Liverpool reportedly wants around €50 million.

Konaté is reportedly open to a move, and Madrid might prefer to wait until 2026, when he could leave on a free transfer, rather than meet Liverpool’s current valuation.

Meanwhile, Foot Mercato recently revealed Konaté has been offered to several top European clubs—including PSG, Real Madrid, and Barcelona—boosting the likelihood of a transfer once his contract runs out.

Marca reports that Liverpool plan to offer Ibrahima Konaté a new contract in the coming days, and if he turns it down, they will likely put him up for sale this summer.

Earlier this month, journalist Abdellah Boulma reported that Liverpool are still in talks with Konaté over a contract extension. While no deal is finalized yet, the French defender is happy at the club and wants to stay.
