Liverpool has reportedly agreed to sign Ibrahima Konate from Bundesliga club RB Leipzig. The Premier League side has apparently agreed to pay the €35 million (£30m) release clause for the French Defender. If the deal goes through, Konate will be signing a five-year deal a with Liverpool.
As per reports, Liverpool also seems interested in signing Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele. Barcelona have put a £52 million ($72m) asking price on the French superstar. Barcelona though have made an offer to Dembele and wants the player to stay, courtesy of an outstanding season at the Camp Nou, but the Frenchman has still not responded to the contract he was offered 2 weeks ago.
Reports suggest that Manchester United are also in the race of getting French Forward’s signature. The Red Devils are interested in Aston Villa starlet Carney Chukwuemeka. United are one of many Premier League teams to be tracking the 17-year-old, however Villa are desperate to secure him on a new long-term deal.
