Fabrizio Romano has clarified why he shared a statement from Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate discussing the future of Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe. It has been widely known for some time that Mbappe’s contract with PSG is coming to an end, and it now appears highly likely that he will leave the club on a free transfer this summer, with Real Madrid being his probable destination. Konate hinted at this when asked about his compatriot, seemingly dismissing the idea of Liverpool signing the former Monaco player. In an exclusive interview with However, it appears that this aligns with the overall consensus within the football community that Mbappe will be joining Madrid this summer. Romano stated, “Regarding Mbappe, some fans have questioned why I shared Ibrahima Konate’s comment on X, which downplayed the links with Liverpool and implied that everyone knows where Mbappe is headed. I can confirm that both Real Madrid and PSG dressing rooms believe that Mbappe will join Real Madrid. The player himself had the same belief two years ago, but this year it seems different as he will not be staying at PSG. I am unsure if Konate possesses any inside information; I simply shared his quote. However, the prevailing sentiment among the involved clubs is that Mbappe is expected to make the move to Madrid at last.”
