Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konaté said he is close to agreeing a new contract with the Premier League club, with his current deal set to expire at the end of the season. The 26-year-old France international, who joined from RB Leipzig in 2021 for a reported fee of 36 million pound, had been linked with a move to Real Madrid.
Konaté has been a key part of Arne Slot’s side, forming a strong defensive partnership with captain Virgil van Dijk. During his time at Anfield, he has won the Premier League, two League Cups and the FA Cup, and finished runner-up in the Champions League.
“There are many things people have said, but for a long time we have spoken with the club and we are close to an agreement,” Konaté told reporters after Liverpool’s 2-1 derby win over Everton on Sunday.
“I think everyone wants that as soon as possible, but we are in a good place.
“For sure, there is a big chance that I will be here next season. This is what I have always wanted.

“I am waiting to sort the contract, but when everything is done you will have to ask Richard Hughes what I told him in September and November, before all the speculation. He will say something to make everyone quiet.”
The current campaign is set to end without silverware for the defender, with Liverpool eliminated from the Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup, and sitting fifth in the Premier League with five matches remaining.
“It has been a bad season by Liverpool’s standards. If we finish in the top four, we will not be happy,” Konaté said. “It is an amazing club and a great family. This club means so much to me.”

Harry Kane took part in training with his Bayern Munich teammates on Monday ahead of the German club’s UEFA Champions League quarterfinal first leg match at Real Madrid as he continues his recovery from an ankle niggle.
The striker picked up an injury while on international duty with England in late March, which caused him to pull out of last Tuesday’s friendly defeat to Japan at Wembley, with coach Thomas Tuchel saying the 32-year-old was suffering just a “minor” complaint.
Kane was then not included in the Bayern squad for Saturday’s 3-2 Bundesliga win at Freiburg.
On Monday, however, he appeared in good spirits on Bayern’s training ground during the 15-minute session, which was open to the press.
Bayern boss Vincent Kompany will delay his decision on whether to start Kane in Tuesday’s tie with Real Madrid until the evening of the match.
Kane has scored 48 goals in 40 appearances across all competitions this season, including 10 in nine Champions League outings.
