Manchester United has supposedly joined the competition to sign Ibrahima Konate in the mid-year transfer window.
A month ago, The Athletic announced that the RB Leipzig protector is going towards Liverpool this late spring, with the Reds previously arranging an arrangement for him.
David Ornstein and a few other solid writers have asserted that Konate is probably going to join the Merseyside club, with Liverpool right now ready to make arrangements for the player, which is accounted for to be around £34 million.
Reinforcing the defense is a need for the Reds, and keeping in mind that the arrangement isn’t done at this point, the idea was clear – Konate would be Anfield-bound in a couple of months. And many are thinking that he can solve the defensive crises that Liverpool are facing since the injury faced by Van Dijk. Be that as it may, there could be a bend in the story, with the Red Devils currently enrolling an interest in him.
Manchester United together and a few other heavyweight clubs were being connected with a move for Konate’s club colleague, Dayot Upamecano, however, he is going towards Bayern Munich all things considered and his transfer is already confirmed.
Eurosport guarantee that the Red Devils are looking for another middle back and have reserved Konate on the off chance that Eric Bailly leaves this mid-year.
Bailly, who has a little more than a year staying on his agreement, is supposedly getting baffled at United. Sevilla’s Jules Kounde and Villarreal’s Pau Torres are ideal objectives for the Red Devils, however, they are additionally quick to land Konate.
Liverpool are “getting increasingly intrigued” by Ozan Kabak, who joined the Reds from Schalke in the January window. The Reds can sign him forever by paying £18m. In an ideal world, Klopp couldn’t want anything more than to sign both Kabak and Konate for an expense of around £50m, yet that looks exceptionally impossible.
