Brahima Konate is set to leave Liverpool when his
contract expires next month after failing to agree on a new deal.
The 27-year-old French defender had been in talks with
the club about extending his contract but could not find common ground and is
now set to walk away for free.
Konate has been linked with several clubs across
Europe since the turn of the year but has yet to decide on his next move.
The France international has made 183 appearances
since his arrival from RB Leipzig, winning one Premier League title, one FA
Cup, and two Carabao Cups.
Konate had been linked with Real Madrid for most of
the season as his contract ticked down, but a return to the city of his birth
with Paris Saint-Germain now appears more likely.
With Konate departing, French defender Jeremy Jacquet
will become a Liverpool player this summer from Rennes in a £60 million deal,
making him the club's second-most expensive defender.
Italian defender Giovani Leoni will also return to the
squad for the new season after suffering a season-ending knee injury on debut
in September.
