Liverpool target Brazilian for €40m as Konate exits

Liverpool could soon add a new Brazilian to their starting XI. The player is valued at €40 million. Ibrahima Konate will leave Liverpool this summer. Contract negotiations with the French defender have ended. Konate is a French centre‑back. His departure creates a vacancy in Liverpool’s defensive line. The club’s transfer activity therefore involves both a high‑value incoming target and the exit of a French defender. Liverpool’s next steps will shape the squad for the upcoming season.
