Ibrahim Konaté unexpectedly decided to leave Liverpool as a free agent.

Although at the end of the season it was announced that the 27-year-old Frenchman would sign a new contract, this ultimately did not happen, and the club announced that the defender would no longer play for the team.

The footballer's services were of great interest to Real Madrid for a time, but eventually they pulled out of the race.

It seems that I. Konaté's time in Europe may be over at least for a while.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that for now, the most likely scenario is that I. Konaté will continue his career in Saudi Arabia, where several clubs are interested in his services.
