I think Marc has already told us that he doesn't sign a new contract, so he will leave next year. The club wanted (him to stay). They offered Marc a new contract, but he said, No, I want to make something different', and that's normal. And for us, it's how we can deal with this situation. (What) is the best way to get this next step done? And that's all about how we are talking together.

Konate is expected to move on as a free agent in the summer of 2026. Real Madrid were keen on securing his signature, but it appears that they have changed their preference. Real Madrid to move on from Konate? According to Fichajes, they would prefer to sign the Crystal Palace Star Marc Guehi instead. The 25-year-old will be a free agent in the summer, and he is an attractive option for the Spanish outfit.

Barcelona are admirers of Borussia Dortmund forward Karim Adeyemi, says Sky Switzerland. Adeyemi, 23, could emerge as a concrete target next summer, as he will be entering the final year of his current deal, and Barca are keeping tabs on his development in the Bundesliga. The Germany international has had a solid start to the new season, with three goal involvements from his first six league games and could replace 37-year-old Robert Lewandowski long term.

The England international came so close to moving to Anfield late on in the transfer window, with reliable outlets like the Athletic reporting that a deal had been agreed. However, this fell through late on and Liverpool must now be regretting that even more, with Slot confirming the Giovanni Leoni injury blow earlier this morning as well. This leaves the Reds short of depth at the back, and that will be why they were so keen on someone like Guehi in the first place.

If I think back to those Chelsea teams that won everything, they had Petr Cech, Carvalho, John Terry that's the basis of any team, Hargreaves said, as quoted by the Metro. It's not a criticism, it's just a fact and I thought the two young centre-backs did okay but we're talking about (Luis) Diaz, (Michael) Olise and Kane, some of the top performers, it was a big ask for them but mistakes cost them more than anything.

He also scored his first England goal in their 5-0 win over Serbia during the international break, further solidifying his place in Thomas Tuchel's 2026 World Cup squad. Since joining Palace in July 2021, no player has played more successful passes (8,093), made more clearances (609), won more aerial duels (276) and made more interceptions (149) than Guehi for the Eagles in all competitions.

During the closing stages of the recent summer transfer window, the 25-year-old came agonisingly close to completing a high-profile switch to Anfield. Reports confirmed that Guehi had even undergone medical tests with Arne Slot's side, only for the move to collapse at the final hurdle. Palace were unable to recruit a replacement in time, forcing manager Oliver Glasner to block the sale.

Despite the United captain having already turned down approaches from Al Hilal, Al Nassr and Al Ittihad, SPL clubs are intent on signing the 30-year-old in the summer of 2026. Al Hilal had been willing to offer £80 million, but Fernandes decided that it was best to stay at Old Trafford in the lead-up to next year's FIFA World Cup.
