Ready to begin with Real Madrid
Konate is set to play with his new club and will compete for a starting role in central defense under new coach Jose Mourinho, the club posted.
Analysis: Konate made 36 Premier League appearances for Liverpool last season, contributing one goal, before completing his move to Real Madrid this summer. He struggled to make an impact during a rare start at the World Cup for France, doing little to influence the loss to England, and now faces genuine competition from Antonio Rudiger and Dean Huijsen as he looks to establish himself in Real Madrid's back line under Mourinho heading into the new 2026/27 La Liga season.
Quiet performance Saturday
Konate generated one clearance in Saturday's 6-4 defeat to England.
Analysis: Konate did a poor job defensively in a rare start after being virtually unused throughout the 2026 World Cup. While he barely got a chance to showcase his skills in the international activity, the central man recently completed a transfer from Liverpool to Real Madrid, joining an interesting competition with Antonio Rudiger and Dean Huijsen ahead of the 2026/27 season.
