Real Madrid are pushing hard to land Liverpool center-back Ibrahima Konate this summer.

With Paris Saint-Germain also circling, Liverpool face pressure over the French defender’s future, as contract talks remain unresolved.

Konate is seeking a £200,000-a-week deal, a steep rise from his current wages.

Liverpool, known for their performance-based structure, are resisting fixed salaries without incentives.

The impasse has opened the door for top European clubs to make a move, with Caught Offside reporting Real Madrid and PSG are closely tracking his situation.

Sources say Madrid are exploring a cut-price deal around £25 million, but Liverpool have no intention of entertaining low offers.

The Reds see Konate as a vital figure in their defensive rebuild under Arne Slot, especially after the departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold to Madrid.

Konate’s speed, strength, and ball-carrying skills have made him a fan favourite since joining from RB Leipzig in 2021.

Letting him go now would send a poor signal in what is supposed to be a new, ambitious era at Anfield.

Liverpool are reportedly lining up Marc Guehi of Crystal Palace as a potential replacement, but that’s a fallback—not a plan.

The club want Konate to stay, and compromise is possible if both parties meet halfway on a new deal.

Madrid can test Liverpool’s resolve, but they’re no longer in the business of losing stars on the cheap.

If Konate leaves, it won’t be through the back door—it’ll be on Liverpool’s terms, not anyone else’s.
