Liverpool are set to agree deal with a player worth £38 million – Journalist…
Liverpool is poised to finalize an agreement for a player valued at £38 million.
Liverpool is poised to finalize a deal with a player valued at £38 million, according to a journalist.
The club has consistently demonstrated a keen acumen in its transfer dealings. While many clubs were vying for Dayot Upamecano, who was gaining attention at RB Leipzig, Liverpool quietly secured his defensive partner, Ibrahima Konate.
Currently, one could argue that, aside from his previous fitness concerns, Konate possesses a greater potential than his Bayern Munich counterpart, a perspective that may not have been evident during their time together at RB Leipzig.
This season, under the guidance of Arne Slot, Konate has significantly improved as a player, establishing himself as one of the top center-backs in the Premier League.
His injury troubles appear to be behind him, and he has forged a formidable partnership with Virgil van Dijk.
With his contract set to expire in 2026, there have been ongoing reports suggesting that Liverpool is likely to secure a new agreement with him without complications.
Reliable journalist James Pearce from The Athletic has indicated that there are currently no significant issues in the contract discussions between Liverpool and Konate.
He stated, “The only other priority is Ibrahima Konate, whose deal runs until 2026.
Talks are underway and I don’t envisage any issues there. He’s happy and settled at Liverpool. He’s in the best form of his Anfield career and at 25, his best years are ahead of him.”
As Pearce highlights, Konate’s prime years are still ahead.
He is well-positioned to eventually succeed Virgil van Dijk when the Dutch defender steps back from the top level, although given Van Dijk’s current form, that transition may not occur in the near future.
Learning from one of the greatest center-backs in Premier League history has undoubtedly benefited the £38 million-rated player.
He has evolved into a central defender who is nearly impossible to bypass, much like Van Dijk.
All indications suggest that Konate is set to sign a new contract with Liverpool.
This will mark an important milestone for the club’s future at Anfield, and we can only hope it occurs in the near future.
