According to various outlets, Chelsea are seriously considering a move for Liverpool defender, Ibrahima Konate. While nothing concrete has emerged yet, the player's name has reportedly featured in internal discussions about possible reinforcements ahead of the run-in. Until a fee and conditions are finalised, the deal remains vulnerable to disruption - especially if Man Utd, Inter and Aston Villa decide to make a formal offer of their own in the coming days. Across the season 25/26, Chelsea have let in 49 goals in 36 (1.36 per game), roughly in line with the Premier League average. Ibrahima Konate would be expected to give them some extra stability and depth for the tougher stretches of the season. Alongside this, Liverpool are said to be exploring Levi Colwill, Hugo Larsson and Antonio Nusa with Chelsea likewise connected to Mateus Fernandes, Bernardo Silva and Cristian Romero.
