Liverpool might accept a swap deal with Real Madrid as Ibrahima Konate is reportedly eyeing a move to the Santiago Bernabeu.

The French defender played a key role in Liverpool’s defence during their Premier League title-winning campaign last season.

Reports now suggest the player is unhappy with his current wages and has already rejected the club’s offer to extend his contract.

His current deal runs until 2026, and Real Madrid are fully aware of the situation.

Last month, reports claimed Los Blancos are already working to sign him for free in 2026, similar to how they secured Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are reportedly unwilling to repeat the same mistake and could sell Konate this summer if he doesn’t agree to a new deal.

Diario AS reported that Xabi Alonso’s side will not spend more than €25m for Konate this window.

Arne Slot’s side is asking for €50m, and the club may seek alternatives if negotiations fail.

According to Diario AS, Liverpool are reportedly considering Real Madrid forward Rodrygo in a potential swap deal.

The Brazilian is also said to be keen on a move to the Premier League.

Rodrygo is reportedly unhappy with his game time at Madrid, having failed to feature in five consecutive matches, including the FIFA Club World Cup semi-final loss to Paris Saint-Germain.

With Liverpool showing strong interest, the Brazilian forward might also consider Anfield as his next destination.

However, there have been no direct talks between the two clubs regarding the players.

There remains a possibility that a swap deal could materialise, benefiting both clubs and potentially satisfying all parties involved.
