Konate About Rumors To Real Madrid: Mbappe Joins Every 2 Hours

Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate joked that Kylian Mbappe called him every two hours to talk about a possible move to Real Madrid.

Konate's contract expires at the end of the 2025/2026 season and continues to be linked to the La Liga giant despite Liverpool wanting to keep it in the long term.

While on international duty, Konate was asked in an interview with Telefoot whether his teammate in the French National Team, Mbappe, pressured him to move to Real Madrid.

"He calls me every two hours," Konate said.

However, Konate joked in the same chat that she didn't know Spanish.

The 26-year-old has started in all three Premier League games for Liverpool this season, with the reigning champions gaining maximum points so far.

Apart from that, Mbappe called Paris Saint-Germain, Ousmane Dembele and Achraf Hakimi stars, as candidates for the Ballon d'Or.

"Does he deserve it? For me, yes. I hope he wins it. I have supported him from the start."

"I also hope Achraf will finish in a high position, it will be good for the defenders. He has had a historic season," said Mbappe of Dembele and Hakimi.
