Konaté is currently earning £70,000 a week but has informed Liverpool he wants £200,000 per week to sign a new contract, according to DaveOCKOP.com.
The Premier League champions are pushing for the 26-year-old to agree to a structure built largely on performance-related incentives and bonuses, while Konaté is holding out for a higher guaranteed base salary.
Earlier this month, journalist Abdellah Boulma reported that Liverpool are still in talks with Konaté over a contract extension. While no deal is finalized yet, the French defender is happy at the club and wants to stay.
