Ibrahima Konaté is set to depart from Liverpool at the conclusion of the current season, at which time his contract will expire on June 30, 2026. Juventus are seeking defenders and could present an option for Konaté in Serie A. According to Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto on YouTube, the player's contract extension with Liverpool was near resolution in April, with only some details regarding bonus activation outstanding, but the deal ultimately did not succeed and Konaté will be available on a free transfer. The player's wage, signing bonus, and agent commissions are at present too high for Italian clubs, and a transfer would only be feasible if he reduces his financial demands.

On November 10, TEAMtalk’s transfer correspondent, Fraser Fletcher, reported that Juventus are interested in Ibrahima Konaté, a 26-year-old French defender for Liverpool whose contract ends at the end of the season. The same report noted that Bayern Munich are also keen on the defender. Konaté joined Liverpool in July 2021 and has 26 caps for France. He has made 11 appearances in the Premier League this season. His market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €55.00m.
