Liverpool to ‘sacrifice Ibrahima Konate’ for brand new Paris Saint-Germain transfer
Liverpool may have the upper hand in the race to sign a PSG midfielder if one development is to play out at Anfield.
Liverpool are enjoying a spectacular campaign under Arne Slot, with Mohamed Salah earning most of the spotlight for his contributions in the final third.
However, the midfield occupants have contributed just as much in other ways, with Ryan Gravenberch one of those impressing, and according to Anfield Watch (14 February), Liverpool are looking to add even more quality in that position.
PSG midfielder Warren Zaire-Emery is said to be a target for Slot’s side, and should a deal be pursued, it would be a remarkable piece of business.
Not only that, but they have a potential decision to make on one player who could play a key role in any future deal.
Liverpool may sacrifice key player in bid to sign Zaire-Emery
Signing Zaire-Emery will certainly be a challenge for Liverpool, with the Frenchman earning a growing reputation in Ligue 1 with years of development still ahead of him.
However, if the Reds are that serious about a deal, they may need to sacrifice another player.
Ibrahima Konate is a reported target for PSG [ESPN], and while Liverpool will not want to lose the Frenchman, it’s certainly a decision that will be interesting come the summer.
PSG will want to keep Zaire-Emery, but with Konate seemingly emerging as a priority for the French giants, it is shaping up to be an interesting saga.
Konate has been a mainstay at Liverpool, but with such a big opportunity at hand, Liverpool have a decision to make.
Liverpool to sign Zaire-Emery?
Zaire-Emery would be a ridiculous signing for any club, but if Liverpool were to secure his signature, he would take their midfield to a whole new level.
Alexis Mac Allister is another midfielder to have impressed for Liverpool, but if there’s even a chance of signing Zaire-Emery, Liverpool must do whatever it takes.
The upcoming summer window will certainly be an interesting one on Merseyside but if these rumours are to develop any further, it will only become more and more exciting.
