🚨💣 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Liverpool’s contract talks with Ibrahima Konate have stalled, with Real Madrid lurking for a potential summer move. Reds won’t break the bank to keep him.

Liverpool’s contract negotiations with Ibrahima Konaté have hit a stumbling block, raising doubts over the defender’s long-term future at Anfield.

The French centre-back, a key figure in the Reds’ backline since his arrival from RB Leipzig, is yet to agree fresh terms, with talks reportedly stalling over financial demands. While Liverpool value Konaté highly, the club is unwilling to break their wage structure to keep him.

That impasse has alerted Real Madrid, who are monitoring the situation closely ahead of the summer window. With the Spanish giants looking to bolster their defensive ranks, Konaté could become a prime target if no breakthrough is reached.

For Liverpool, the coming months will be decisive. Either an agreement is struck to secure one of their most reliable defenders, or they risk losing him to one of Europe’s most powerful clubs.
