Team News: Liverpool hopes to complete Connate contract renewal in the summer window, and the previous offer was considered far from enough

May 21 According to French media "Team News", Connater's contract will expire in 2026, and Liverpool hopes to complete the contract renewal with the players in the summer window.

After successfully renewing Salah and Van Dijk, Liverpool made the contract renewal of Connaet a priority. In order to avoid the situation of Arnold's free transfer to Real Madrid again, the club is well aware of the urgency of completing this task.

The two parties have been discussing matters related to renewal for less than a year. At first, Liverpool was confident of completing the contract renewal quickly and made its first offer in December last year. But the player representatives believed that the offer was far from enough, and the two sides agreed to postpone negotiations until the end of the season in order to protect the players.

At the end of March, the two sides resumed negotiations, but no substantial progress has been made so far. Recently, Connat's agent held a new round of negotiations with sports director Richard Hughes and plans to meet again in one to two weeks, with Liverpool's goal to finalize a contract renewal before the end of the summer window.

25-year-old Connate has performed better and better since joining Liverpool in the summer of 2021, and the players have realized that they have reached a critical moment in their career. He is highly recognized in the team and has the full trust of the club and coaching staff. At the same time, the players are closely watching the club's development and know whether the team still maintains strong competitiveness.

Salary is an important issue in the negotiations for renewals. Although Liverpool has made exceptions for players like Salah, the club has taken strict control over salary. As one of the best defenders in Europe, it is still unknown whether Liverpool will break some conventions for him.

However, Liverpool is optimistic about the contract renewal of Connate, while the player team remains calm, saying it depends on the club. At the same time, Connat's team did not rule out the possibility of leaving the team. The players have recently contacted some European giants, such as Real Madrid, but unlike Saliba, they have not yet contacted Connat. Paris has also indirectly expressed interest in Connat, but there is no specific offer. There are reports that they are very concerned about Connat's situation.
