Real Madrid will have to pay 60 million euros if they want to secure the services of Ibrahima Konaté. The French center-back, currently at Liverpool, is one of the names that the white club has in mind to strengthen their defense, a line that has suffered multiple casualties this season. Although Madrid has already inquired about the player, the English team's financial demand could be a hurdle in the negotiation.

Konaté, 25, will face the final season of his contract with Liverpool, opening the possibility of a summer departure. However, Liverpool is not willing to let him go easily and has set a minimum price for his transfer. Meanwhile, Real Madrid continues to explore options in the market, as they seek a defender to bring solidity to their backline following the physical issues of several key players.

Competition for the French defender will not be easy. Teams like PSG have also shown interest in Konaté, which could raise his price or even complicate the operation for the white team. Furthermore, Liverpool does not rule out attempting to renew his contract to keep him in their squad long term.

Despite any economic challenges that may arise, Madrid is clear that they need a reinforcement of hierarchy in defense. If Florentino Pérez's club decides to bet on Konaté, they must assess whether the demanded 60 million euros justify the investment or if it is preferable to look for alternatives in the market. In the coming months, it will be decided whether the French center-back changes teams or remains a key piece in Liverpool's defense.
