Ibrahima Konate to leave Liverpool on a free transfer

Ibrahima Konate is set to leave Liverpool on a free transfer after several years at Anfield, Sky Sports Football reported.

The French central defender joined Liverpool in the summer of 2021 from German club RB Leipzig, arriving as a long-term partner for Virgil van Dijk at the heart of the Reds' defence. During his time at Anfield, Konate established himself as one of the club's key defensive figures, contributing to Liverpool's campaigns across the English Premier League and European competition.

The departure marks the end of his stint with the Merseyside club. Konate's contract is understood to have run its course, allowing him to exit as a free agent. No destination for the defender was specified in the Sky Sports Football report, and it remains unclear which clubs, if any, have entered discussions over a potential move.

Liverpool have not yet publicly commented on the matter, according to the report.
