Oh yes, if I'm not mistaken, there's a rumor that one of Liverpool's star defenders is open to joining Real Madrid. Liverpool's 26-year-old center-back Ibrahima Konaté is reportedly open to joining Real Madrid this summer.

But judging by the previous news, he could also go to Barcelona, i.e. he has no clear desire to go to Real. Could this just be part of a negotiating strategy to get a fatter contract? It makes sense to me, as Liverpool are showing they definitely have the money.
