Real Madrid say, external they have reached an agreement with Konate "for him to become a Real Madrid player for the next four seasons, until 30 June, 2030".
Konate, who is part of his country's squad at the 2026 World Cup, joined Liverpool from RB Leipzig in 2021 for £35m on a five-year contract.
He made 183 appearances for the Anfield club in all competitions and won the Premier League, FA Cup and two League Cups.
