Real Madrid are reportedly on the brink of securing one of the most significant transfers of the summer. According to Diario AS, French centre-back Ibrahima Konaté, who is set to leave Liverpool, is nearing a move to the “royal club” as a free agent.
Details: Real Madrid management has reached an agreement with the 27-year-old defender regarding personal terms. Konaté is expected to sign a long-term contract that will span four years, with an option to extend for an additional season.
A pivotal aspect of this transfer was the endorsement from the coaching staff, particularly from Real’s head coach, José Mourinho, who personally approved Konaté’s signing.
This season, the French defender has made an impactful contribution, playing 51 matches for Liverpool and scoring 2 goals.
