Sports Zone reports that there is currently a status quo regarding Konaté’s situation, with PSG confident that time is working in its favor. The club remains patient as it monitors developments surrounding the Liverpool defender.

PSG’s long-term vision includes forming a top-tier defensive trio featuring Willian Pacho, Illya Zabarnyi, and Konaté. The club is in no rush and is willing to wait another year for that plan to take shape.

Paris rêve d’un secteur défensif avec 3 joueurs de très haut niveau avec Pacho, Zabarnyi et Ibou Konaté.

Attendre un an pour voir la chose prendre forme ne dérange pas Paris. https://t.co/O3hIaREBR6

The Guardian reported on Monday that the 26-year-old is unhappy with the structure of Liverpool’s contract offer, as his camp is reportedly pushing for a higher base salary. The current proposal places a strong emphasis on performance-related incentives.

If Liverpool can’t reach an agreement with Konaté by the end of the summer, they could face a challenging situation, especially in light of the backlash that followed Trent Alexander-Arnold’s move to Real Madrid.
