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. Foot Mercato reports this Thursday that the player is opting for a departure, and that PSG are among the clubs positioning themselves.
“The main interested party has a preference.”
“Ibrahima Konaté would like to change air next summer, at the end of his contract. Aware that the situation was not to his advantage, the Mersey club had launched discussions for an extension, but so far they have come to nothing.
Several clubs are already aware of the situation and are on the lookout for a possible signature. These include Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. Other clubs are interested in snapping him up for free. The main interested party has a preference for Real Madrid.”
Please note that nothing is certain yet. For the time being, these are just rumours, and we don’t have any concrete information. But Konaté’s departure is a possibility, and PSG could be interested. It’s a tempting opportunity to strengthen the defense. And with a player from the Paris region.
But there’s nothing more advanced than that, which remains light. All the more so as the media report mentions a preference for Real Madrid. Let’s wait and see. There are still many possible outcomes. An extension is not even impossible.
