Liverpool transfer news: Ibrahima Konate set to leave Anfield on a free transfer five years after move from RB Leipzig

Ibrahima Konate is set to leave Liverpool after five years at Anfield.

The 27-year-old had been in talks with the club about extending his contract but could not find common ground when it came to signing a new deal and is now set to walk away for free.

Konate has been linked with a number of sides 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.

Your Site News' Vinny O'Connor:

In terms of solidifying things in midfield and defence, No 6 makes sense given they need another option to Ryan Gravenbech and that's an area where we expect Liverpool will at least look to address.

Remember that Jeremy Jacquet will become a Liverpool player this summer from Rennes - just before he turns 21 - in a £60m deal. He is the second-most expensive defender to join Liverpool.

But Jacquet himself has missed the back end of the season with a shoulder injury. Liverpool also have Geovanni Leoni to come back from his ACL injury.

Virgil van Dijk is still at Liverpool, as is Joe Gomez - who has just a year left on his contract. So there could be movement in that centre-back role.

Cover at left-back may be needed with Andy Robertson saying his goodbyes - although they also have Kostas Tsimikas returning from his loan spell.

Latest from Your Site News' Vinny O'Connor and Sky in Italy:

Inter Milan remain interested in signing Curtis Jones from Liverpool.

The Italian club have been keen on the midfielder for some time - and he remains one of their targets this summer.

His Liverpool future is unclear following a lack of regular starts under Arne Slot this season.

He made 16 starts in the Premier League and seven in a row at the end of the campaign - but 18 more appearances came from the bench.
