PSG, Real Madrid Get Bad News as Liverpool Star Predicted to Stay Past This Summer

Football Insider reports that Liverpool still haven’t given up hope of getting Konaté to sign a contract extension, according to journalist Pete O’Rourke.

“I don’t see a move happening this summer,” O’Rourke told Football Insider. “It would have to be a very good offer from Real Madrid to convince Liverpool to sell Konate, even though they don’t want him to run down his contract.

“You’re probably looking at over at least £40million to sell him now. I’d imagine Konate will end up staying at Liverpool this summer. The club will hold further talks with him to try and convince him to sign a new contract.

“So the player is in the box seat here, he can stay at Liverpool and talk to interested clubs in January with his contract running down as well. It’s a real worry for Liverpool because they’ve seen Trent Alexander-Arnold leave the club and they don’t want to see Konate do the same.”
