Didac Aguirre Saudi Arabia About to Snatch Liverpool's Star from Real Madrid: Huge Offer in Sight
The Important Offer with Which Real Madrid Could Lose One of Their Priority Signings to Saudi Arabia
Since last summer, Saudi Arabia has emerged as a serious threat to Real Madrid. Making multiple attempts to sign Vinícius or Rodrygo, Saudi Arabia was rejected by both the players and Real Madrid itself. A situation that, given Saudi Arabia's desire to have a star player, has led it to interfere in an important transfer.
With Real Madrid focused on signing a central defender, the club had shown great interest in Ibrahima Konaté. The current Liverpool central defender, despite his importance to the club, has not yet renewed his contract, which expires next season. A clear opportunity that Real Madrid seeks to seize to secure Konaté's services.
However, Saudi Arabia has once again emerged as a great threat to this operation for Real Madrid. Working on a significant offer for Konaté, Real Madrid could lose this signing to the millions offered by Saudi Arabia.
The Arab Threat
Having been part of Liverpool since 2021, Ibrahima Konaté has been key to the club's successes. Forming a great partnership with Virgil Van Dijk, both central defenders have been responsible for defending Liverpool on countless occasions. While his relevance is evident through the 3,130 minutes he has played, his contract has not been renewed.
With Liverpool focusing on the renewals of Van Dijk and Salah, Real Madrid seeks to take advantage of this situation as soon as possible. At 25 years old, Konaté could provide several seasons at a very high level, thus securing the merengue defense.
While Real Madrid did not plan to sign Konaté this summer, they did plan to start the operation to sign him for free next season. A plan that could be ruined by the millions Saudi Arabia is willing to spend to steal him from Real Madrid.
Real Madrid's Moment
Although Real Madrid managed to secure the stay of Vinícius and Rodrygo, now is the time to fight for the signing of Konaté. Despite not having the capital to compete against Saudi Arabia, the prestige of playing for Real Madrid is more important than money.
