Real Madrid: Mbappé is already courting Ibrahima Konaté

French center-back Ibrahima Konaté is firmly on Real Madrid's radar. His contract with Liverpool expires next June, and all signs point to him not extending his stay with the Reds.

The player was pursued during the last transfer window but ultimately chose to remain at Liverpool for the current season. Starting this January, Konaté will be free to negotiate with any club and can sign a pre-contract to join a new team on a free transfer the following season.

In an interview, Konaté revealed that Kylian Mbappé is calling him every two hours to convince him to join Real Madrid next season. The Madrid management sees him as a key player, anticipating that some members of their defensive unit could depart the club. This is definitely a story to watch.
