Ibrahima Konate: Genuine Madrid take incredibly strong action

Genuine Madrid have taken a strong action in their pursuit of Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konate. They want the Frenchman.It’s obvious

at this stage that Genuine Madrid wish to sign Ibrahima Konate. It no longer appears like much of a secret that Konate wishes to join Real Madrid.That’s the line out of Spain, anyway, and has been for rather some time now. The Frenchman’s contract ends at the end of the season and Los Blancos odor another prospective complimentary transfer.It’s a repeat

of the Trent Alexander-Arnold legend, naturally. That saw Alexander-Arnold string Liverpool along for at least a year before ‘eventually’ choosing to sign for Real Madrid.They’re trying the exact same technique, persuading Konate that they’re the ultimate location and making it near-impossible for the Reds to agree a brand-new agreement. And it seems working in back-to-back years.However, there’s a twist here. Things are different this time around

and it implies Real Madrid have actually taken a strong new step.Marca reports that Real Madrid are leaving a team space open in case Konate joins them

in this transfer window. That involves leaving Franco Mastantuono with their Castilla side for a bit , as they did with both Vinicius and Rodrygo.So could a transfer actually happen this summer? Yes, actually.Real Madrid are a bit desperate after ending up last season trophyless.

Their defence, in particular, looks sub-par, with Dean Huijsen, still a young player and one who hasn’t been a player in a leading side before, their finest option.They might well reach a point where success looks challenging to accomplish without an elite addition there. Konate, with just one year remaining on his contract, would be far and away their best option.But that would indicate Liverpool wishing to offer. It’s possible they reach that point if a deal can be provided for Marc Guehi, who likewise has just one year left on his deal.Real Madrid are just happy to put up

around EUR25m, however, which makes it challenging when Crystal Palace desire substantially more than that for their captain. Liverpool are just going to sell Konate if they can effectively replace

him totally free instantly, as they will have the ability to do next summer.So there’s a long method to go here. It’s certainly bold to leave an area for Konate when an offer isn’t remotely close, but perhaps it’s an indication that Genuine Madrid are more open up to settlement than first thought.
