Konate Set to Leave Liverpool on Free Transfer

Ibrahima Konate is set to leave Liverpool after five years at Anfield.

The 27-year-old had been in talks with the club about extending his contract but could not find common ground when it came to signing a new deal and is now set to walk away for free.

Konate has been linked with a number of sides across Europe since the turn of the year, but has yet to decide on his next move.

The France international has made 183 appearances since his arrival from RB Leipzig, winning one Premier League title, one FA Cup and two Carabao Cups.

Defensive Changes at Liverpool

Liverpool may look to address the No 6 position to provide another option to Ryan Gravenbech. Jeremy Jacquet will become a Liverpool player this summer from Rennes in a £60m deal, just before he turns 21. He is the second-most expensive defender to join Liverpool.

Jacquet himself has missed the back end of the season with a shoulder injury. Liverpool also have Geovanni Leoni to come back from his ACL injury.

Virgil van Dijk is still at Liverpool, as is Joe Gomez – who has just a year left on his contract. So there could be movement in that centre-back role.

Cover at left-back may be needed with Andy Robertson saying his goodbyes. Kostas Tsimikas is also returning from his loan spell.

Inter Milan Interested in Curtis Jones

Inter Milan remain interested in signing Curtis Jones from Liverpool.

The Italian club have been keen on the midfielder for some time – and he remains one of their targets this summer.

His Liverpool future is unclear following a lack of regular starts under Arne Slot this season.

He made 16 starts in the Premier League and seven in a row at the end of the campaign – but 18 more appearances came from the bench.

Ibrahima Konate joined Liverpool from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2021.
