The player has been linked with clubs like PSG, and it will be interesting to see if Liverpool can secure an agreement with him over a new deal. The player has revealed via The Independent that he is happy at Liverpool despite the exit links.
“I know I have a lot of objectives with this club: to become a leader, to win everything. I am very happy here to be fair,” said the France international.
“This is another conversation with the club and my agent, we will see what will happen in the next few weeks or I don’t know when but we will see, let me say that.
“Progressing? Not really – but my agent met the club last week but I don’t know what will happen.
“I cannot say what my agent said to me but yeah, we will see what will happen.”
The development will come as a boost for the Premier League champions, and they will be hoping to agree on a new deal with the players soon. There is no doubt that he is one of the best players, and keeping him at the club for the long term will be a priority for them.
Liverpool will be hoping to win major trophies regularly, and they need to keep their best players.
Konate is still relatively young, and he will only improve with coaching and experience. He has all the tools to develop into a world-class player. He has been a reliable partner for club captain Virgil van Dijk, and Liverpool must do everything in their power to convince him to stay at the club.
They have been fighting for major trophies consistently, and they have won the league title this season. Convincing the player of their ambitions should not be difficult. They are likely to be busy in the transfer market this summer, and it will be interesting to see if they can bring in top-quality players to help convince Konate that he will be able to fulfil his ambitions at Enfield.
Liverpool are losing Trent Alexander-Arnold on a free transfer this summer, and they cannot afford to lose another defender anytime soon. They will be desperate to secure his long-term future.
