Real Madrid interested in Konate – PSG have no concrete plans to pursue defender

Written by David

With Ibrahima Konaté’s contract at Liverpool set to expire at the end of next season, speculation over his future at Anfield is intensifying.

The French centre-back has an extension offer on the table from Liverpool, as the club aims to secure his long-term future. However, according to Le Parisien, Konaté is in no rush to commit and will wait until the end of the season before making a decision.

Meanwhile, interest in the former RB Leipzig defender continues to grow. Paris Saint-Germain have been heavily linked with a move, and Konaté himself admitted to Téléfoot that he is “flattered” by the reported interest. However, according to Get French Football News that PSG have no concrete plans to pursue him, with sources within the Ligue 1 club dismissing the speculation.

One club that does remain in the race, according to Le Parisien, is Real Madrid. The Spanish giants have long admired Konaté and could explore a move this summer. Whether their interest materializes into a formal approach remains to be seen, but for now, Liverpool will be hoping to convince one of Arne Slot’s key defensive figures to extend his stay at Anfield.
