According to reports, Real Madrid's management is keeping a close eye on the developments at Liverpool. This might result in them preparing a pre-contract offer for Konate to consider in the coming months, possibly as early as January.

Konate, a France international, had previously clarified the rumors surrounding his contract situation. At the end of last season, he stated that all the speculation on social media was false. He explained that he had not asked for any specific offers from the club, and any claims suggesting otherwise were unfounded.

Additionally, Konate expressed his frustration when journalists reported that he was close to signing a deal in November. He emphasized that these claims were not true at the time and made him feel misunderstood. Konate admitted that his agent had met with the club recently, but he was unsure of the outcome.

It remains to be seen how this situation will unfold. For now, it seems that Konate is focused on his career and is waiting to see what happens next.
