Konate is being closely watched by Real Madrid. |
According to Fichajes , the first name on the list is Ibrahima Konate, a central defender for Liverpool. At 26 years old, Konate is at the peak of his form and is a reliable stopper in defense. With his outstanding physique, pressing ability, positioning and impressive footwork, he is highly appreciated by coach Xabi Alonso.
Along with Konate, another French centre-back targeted is Bayern Munich's Dayot Upamecano. Despite being criticised for his inconsistent form and injury history, Upamecano is still one of the defenders with great potential when in good shape. At 27 in 2026, he could be a quality rotation option or even compete fairly for a starting spot at the Bernabeu.
The biggest surprise has been in the goalkeeper position. Gianluigi Donnarumma has just enjoyed a stellar season with PSG, helping the club win a historic quadruple. However, things are changing in Paris.
The emergence of Lucas Chevalier - a promising young goalkeeper - has left Donnarumma's future uncertain. President Florentino Perez sees this as a golden opportunity to bring in a worthy successor to Thibaut Courtois, who will turn 34 at that time.
Real Madrid's strategy is not only based on expensive contracts like Jude Bellingham, but also on careful calculations to seize opportunities in the market. With the three aforementioned targets all having contracts expiring in 2026, the royal team can negotiate as early as January of the same year without going through the parent club.
