The French international, whose contract with Liverpool expires next June, is increasingly associated with departure to Real Madrid.
Could Ibrahima Konaté follow in the footsteps of Trent Alexander-Arnold, a free left for Real Madrid last summer? This possibility seems to gain more and more weight over the weeks.
According to rumors, the French central defender has already decided to end his adventure on the banks of the Mersey at the end of his contract next June. Mark Indicates that the vice-champion of Spain would have managed to convince him to join the Spanish capital.
Real Madrid's strategy
If this transfer materializes, it will be part of the Casa Blanca strategy, which consists in recruiting free players. Such operations allow the Merengue club to considerably limit its expenses in terms of transfers, remaining only to negotiate the terms of the contract: bonuses, wages and agent commissions.
The Madrid newspaper specifies that the last exchanges between Real and the entourage of Konaté “have shown no sign that the French could act as Alphonso Davies”. The Canadian left side initially agreed to the Whiteos before finally extending with Bayern Munich in February 2025.
