Ibrahima Konate has emerged as a key target for Real Madrid as they seek defensive reinforcements, especially given their current struggles with injuries. Liverpool is reportedly demanding a significant transfer fee of 100 million for Konate, which could be a barrier for Madrid. Alongside dealing with injuries to Eder Militao and David Alaba, Madrid has considered multiple options, including promoting Raul Asencio from the B team. This situation is exacerbated for Liverpool, who have invested in Konate and are also exploring their own centre-back acquisitions as he seeks a contract adjustment.
Real Madrid's hopes of acquiring Konate are complicated by Liverpool's hefty 100m asking price, which may be too high given Madrid's current financial constraints.
Liverpool faces the potential loss of another key defender if Konate leaves for a significant fee, which they’re unwilling to negotiate down despite his contract situation.
