Spanish giants Real Madrid have completed the signing of France defender Ibrahima Konaté on a four-year contract, adding another major name to their squad ahead of the new season.

The 27-year-old centre-back will officially join the club at the end of the month after leaving Liverpool as a free agent following the expiry of his contract at Anfield.

Real Madrid have now made Konaté their third signing of the summer transfer window, following the arrivals of Spain left-back Marc Cucurella from Chelsea and Portuguese midfielder Bernardo Silva. The trio are expected to play key roles as Madrid prepare for a new campaign under head coach José Mourinho.

“Real Madrid and Ibrahima Konaté have reached an agreement for him to become a Real Madrid player for the next four seasons, until June 30, 2030,” the club said in an official statement.
