Real Madrid is closely monitoring a new player from Liverpool in order to secure his services in the next summer transfer window, according to a press report.
Florentino Perez aims to strengthen the ranks of the royal team by acquiring the best players in the world to continue competing in all tournaments and remain at the top for years to come.
According to the “CaughtOffside” website, Real Madrid is monitoring the situation of French defender Ibrahima Konate, whose contract expires in the summer of 2026.
The royal club continues to explore opportunities in the transfer market and sees Konate, 25, as a good option to strengthen the defensive line.
Ibrahima Konate has not yet reached an initial agreement with Liverpool’s management regarding a contract renewal, and Real Madrid sees the French defender as a great opportunity to bolster the team’s defense, especially given the repeated injuries of Alaba and Militao, as well as the advanced age of Rudiger.
Konate is not the only Liverpool player Real Madrid is monitoring, as Trent Alexander-Arnold is also one of Los Blancos’ targets for the next summer transfer window.
