Real Madrid are still keen on signing Ibrahima Konate from Liverpool this summer. It's understood that Alonso wants him at the Santiago Bernebeu this summer to strengthen his squad but Liverpool are asking for €50 million and Real Madrid is proposing half of that amount because his contract with Liverpool is ending next summer. Liverpool hopes to convince him to stay but his already made up his mind not to renew after turning down two contracts renewals from Liverpool of recent. Now it's either Liverpool takes the €25 offered to them by Real Madrid for him or lose him for free next summer when his contract expires. Well let's see how it goes.
Liverpool €50 millions and Real Madrid €25 millions. It is very clear that Liverpool would not give them Ibrahima Konate though in it is a business negotiation but the amount which is 50% of what Liverpool given will not be actualized.
I want Chelsea to complete the signing of Xavi Simmons as his a highly promising attacking midfielder, also he can play as winger, which makes him a versatile player, and one of the key players in RB Leipzig, I love his explosive creativity at the midfield, ending last season with an impressive stats. Signing of Xavi Simmons will definitely help boost the Chelsea football club going into next season, they've got a good frontline players, Pedro and Delap coupled with Palmer's role, Therefore they should look forward into building a stronger midfield with fewer signings.
Lol, are the signings not yet enough for Chelsea! You want them to sign every player in the market right now, just kidding though. But the truth is, Chelsea's squad depth is so massive and right now there no team that can rival them in the number of squads so far, so they should slow it down and relax.
If Real Madrid can leave it this season then Liverpool could lose him for free next season, this was also the case of Trent, they couldn't convince him to stay after he said he was leaving. They would have sold him last season and made a lot of profit off him but they felt they could convince him to extend which didn't happen. Same thing is now happening to Konate.
