Ibrahima Konaté, the 25-year-old central defender for the French national team and Liverpool (under contract until 2026), is in talks to extend his contract. But he has also been mentioned as a target for Paris Saint-Germain this summer. Julien Laurent and ESPN UK report that the player wants to join the Parisian club. This has also been confirmed by Djamel.
“Konate is an excellent player. Often injured, he still has his doubts. We’d like him to follow the same path as Ousmane Dembélé, to be more reliableAs mentioned in our last live report, PSG were looking to recruit a big-name central defender this winter, but it didn’t happen. The matter has therefore been postponed until this summer.
Nevertheless, Ibrahima Konate is VERY open to joining the Parisian team, to the point of making it his PRIORITY in the event of a departure.
A potential match? To be continued…”.
Intrinsically, he’s a modern and complete defender. He could take PSG to the next level. What’s more, he’s from Paris, so the capital club would be recruiting yet another “local” player. However, nothing is set in stone and, above all, we need to take into account all the parameters, including the possibility of strong competition and a possible extension. We’ll be keeping an eye on this dossier this summer.
