Liverpool<\/strong> <\/a>have made a strong start to this summer\u2019s transfer window, sitting second in our list of biggest spenders<\/strong> <\/a>after landing Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Freddie Woodman and Armin Pecsi.<\/p>\n The Reds have already made a statement after clinching their 20th Premier League title, but they still have more business to do this summer as they are targeting a striker, winger and centre-back.<\/p>\n A few key exits are also on the cards, though. Jarell Quansah is expected to be the first of a few notable departures, with Darwin Nunez, Harvey Elliott and Luis Diaz among the players linked with an exit.<\/p>\n Ibrahima Konate\u2019s long-term future is also in doubt as he is the most valuable footballer due to become a free agent in 2026.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n READ:\u00a0Gyokeres to Arsenal: Bruno Fernandes second as Liga Portugal to Premier League signings ranked<\/a> The France international was a standout performer for Liverpool in 2024\/25 as he shone alongside Virgil van Dijk, but recent reports have indicated that he is leaning towards an exit.<\/p>\n Last week, it was claimed that the Reds are \u2018concerned\u2019 and would \u2018reluctantly accept an offer\u2019 to sell Konate<\/strong><\/a> so there is not a repeat of the Trent Alexander-Arnold situation.<\/p>\n Now, a report from journalist Sacha Tavolieri for Sky claims<\/a> Konate is \u2018already prioritising the club he would like to join were he to leave Liverpool, as he \u2018only wants\u2019 Real Madrid.<\/p>\n MORE LIVERPOOL COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 Konate is said to have \u2018made\u2019 this stance \u2018clear to intermediaries\u2019 and he is willing to \u2018wait patiently\u2019 to secure his desired move.<\/p>\n The report also points out that this could see the Spanish giants pull off a similar \u2018coup\u2019 to the deal struck for Alexander-Arnold.<\/p>\n \u2018While several Saudi clubs have already approached him, and his religious values \u200b\u200bcould encourage him to join a country close to his culture, the interested party considers that the time has not yet come to leave the football elite for an exotic destination.<\/p>\n \u2018Whatever happens, the parties know that, given the clear messages sent by the professional entourage at Real Madrid in recent weeks, the leaders of the Casa Blanca could try to pull off a coup similar to the one carried out this summer with Trent Alexander-Arnold.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Tavolieri also provides an update on Diaz, who reportedly feels he is not paid a \u2018fair\u2019 salary at Liverpool. He is said to have several options, with a move to Bayern Munich deemed \u2018Plan B\u2019 behind Barcelona currently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One Liverpool star has already reportedly picked his \u2018priority\u2019 next move after it was reported that he has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":245559,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,225,10307,179,12,101,544,10031,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-245558","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-home-page","12":"tag-ibrahima-konate","13":"tag-liverpool","14":"tag-news","15":"tag-premier-league","16":"tag-real-madrid","17":"tag-soccer","18":"tag-uk","19":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114812615666389232","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245558","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=245558"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/245558\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/245559"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=245558"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=245558"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=245558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
