Real Madrid are leading the chase, having shown strong intent to sign the French international ahead of other suitors.
Barcelona and Bayern Munich have also joined the race, though all clubs balk at Liverpool’s €50 million asking price.
Real Madrid reportedly consider €25 million a fair offer, while Barcelona and Bayern’s bidding intentions remain unclear.
Liverpool aim to renew Konate’s contract but are prepared to sell if no agreement is reached soon.
Barcelona’s defense is already well-stocked with several centre-backs, reducing urgency to sign a new defender this summer.
The Blaugrana might prefer to wait and target Konate as a free agent in 2026 if he does not renew, reports Barca Universal.
A summer transfer for Konate appears unlikely due to his high valuation and Barcelona’s existing options.
Konate played a key role in Liverpool’s recent Premier League title-winning campaign, highlighting his quality and value.
His future remains uncertain as negotiations continue amid interest from Europe’s elite clubs.
