Real Madrid, PSG Target Unhappy With Structure of Liverpool Contract Offer Amid £200K-per-Week Claim

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 leans heavily on performance-related incentives.

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

CaughtOffside recently reported that Liverpool are concerned about a repeat of history after losing Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid on a free transfer.

The report claims that Ibrahima Konaté is asking for wages in the region of £200,000 per week—an amount the club is hesitant to meet. If the two sides can’t agree on new terms by the end of the summer, Liverpool are reportedly open to selling the defender for between €50 and €60 million.

Meanwhile, L’Équipe reported that PSG are keeping an eye on Konaté as they search for a right-sided center back. The Liverpool defender’s name had surfaced frequently a few months ago, but so far, no offer has been submitted to the Premier League club.
