Ibrahima Konaté finds himself at the centre of uncertainty as his Liverpool contract enters its final year with no renewal currently agreed. Fabrizio Romano reports that Real Madrid indeed have him on their radar but right now, Liverpool have “not opened the door” for any talks with the Spanish giants. Despite interest from Los Blancos and elsewhere, Liverpool remain firm in contract negotiations as they hold to a steep €50 million valuation for the 26-year-old. Sources close to the defender suggest his priority remains staying at Anfield, though talks are stalled and no agreement has been reached. Liverpool are also considering signing Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi as a contingency if negotiations with Konaté fail. The club aims to avoid a repeat of the Trent Alexander-Arnold scenario by losing a key defender on a free by either agreeing an extension or selling Konaté this summer. As the new season approaches, all eyes are on whether Liverpool can reach terms or be forced to cash in on a prized asset.
