A disturbing update has dropped concerning the future of a “fantastic” Liverpool player, with a huge club confident that they will sign it next year.
Liverpool linked to potential successors from Salah
Mohamed Salah continues to be one of the best players in the Premier League, despite the fact that his shape has been less than his best this season.
At 33, however, Liverpool must be aware that the Egyptian legend does not become younger, and that an elite replacement must possibly be found, in order to make the transition as transparent as possible when it occurs.
Lyon Lyon Malick Fofana was linked to a move to Anfield, being presented as a successor to Salah, the Belgian an extremely talented young player who can excel on one or the other side. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich star Michael Olise is also considered a main option to come and be the next Liverpool star winger, the Frenchman already scoring three goals in two Bundesliga matches this season.
Far from Salah’s situation, there is a Reds player whose future must be resolved as soon as possible, with a new update.
The club thinks they will sign Liverpool regular
Speak in a Q&R for AthleticsJournalist Mario Cortegana said Real Madrid has the impression that the central defender of Liverpool Ibrahima Konate wanted to move to Bernabeu.
“I have not heard of Van de Ven, but Konate is a different case. The central defender of Liverpool is admired behind the scenes of Madrid. He is one of the elite defenders of Europe and his contract ends next summer. I do not think he was a real option in this summer window, with all the respect due to other information.
“Madrid believes that Konate would like to play for them, but we do not know how hard Liverpool pushes for an extension. Konate could play on both sides in negotiations until he chooses the option that suits him best.”
This occurs only a few days after it was reported that Konate is in “very advanced” discussions on a move to Madrid, rumors refusing to leave.
He does not seem to be closer to extending his stay, the European giants considering him as a key target alongside William Saliba of Arsenal.
At this point, it certainly seems more than possible than Konate can join Madrid next year, his current Liverpool agreement expiring in 2026 and no sign of an extension being currently agreed.
The Frenchman of £ 70,000 per week is an important player that the Reds should try to attach, however, with Virgil Van Dijk One admire, praising him at the start of last season.
“I think we need everyone to be their best. He is a fantastic player who can still be better. As you have seen, he is important with the goal, he is solid defensive, a little unlucky with the goal we have conceded, but obviously the qualities he has exceptional in my opinion.”
Konate has received criticism of a bad form this season, but that should not obscure the fact that he is the second most important defender in Liverpool and that he was an ordinary under the slit.
While losing it in front of Madrid would not necessarily resemble the end of the world, some supporters cannot fully appreciate the work it does when it leaves and how difficult it can be to replace it.
