Real Madrid Confidencial Konaté speaks out about his future, plot twist in his signing for Real Madrid
The situation is becoming more complicated; its arrival at Real Madrid currently seems much more difficult
In the world of soccer, we already know that nothing can be taken for granted until it actually happens. Especially when it comes to transfers, where we've seen deals that seemed practically impossible. That's why, in Konaté's case, anything could still happen.
In fact, the latest reports indicate an unexpected twist in his transfer to Madrid. Journalist Abdellah Boulma states that Konaté will stay at Liverpool. "The French defender is happy at the club and eager to stay," he has confirmed.
Moreover, he has also reported that talks for his contract renewal are still ongoing. This would completely change the outlook regarding his transfer to Real Madrid. It wouldn't be as close as it seemed according to various reports.
Meanwhile, in England, they claim that he has already informed them of his desire to leave for Real Madrid. There was even speculation that he might already have some kind of agreement with the club. These new developments would undermine all of that and move him further away from signing for the Madrid side.
Real Madrid will remain on standby with Konaté
At Real Madrid, they've seen how the situation with Konaté has taken an unexpected turn in recent days. His renewal with Liverpool isn't as far off as it might seem according to some reports. They could miss out on a signing that seemed key for the Madrid defense in the coming years.
He was a player who would arrive on a free transfer, with a lot of quality and good years ahead to strengthen the backline. In addition, he would be the ideal replacement for Rüdiger, who is a much more experienced player. Real Madrid will wait to see if he renews with Liverpool or if he finally decides to leave.
In this second case, the good relationship between Liverpool and Real Madrid could be key. Especially for starting talks with the intention of reaching an agreement for his transfer this summer. Otherwise, they would wait until 2026 (2026), when they could get him for free, as a free agent.
