Mirror: Liverpool is worried that Connate will be attracted by sign-free joining Real Madrid, so they will accelerate their signings

Hupu, August 30, According to the English media Mirror, Liverpool is worried that the team's central defender Connate has been attracted by the option of joining Real Madrid by free next summer, which prompted the Reds to accelerate the signing of Crystal Palace captain Guy before the transfer window this summer is closed to supplement the central defender's position.

It is reported that Anfield's senior management has suspected that the team's French central defender Connate hopes to join the La Liga giant Real Madrid when he becomes a free agent next summer, which is the same as the decision of England's right-back Arnold this summer. The Liverpool youth training player did not renew his contract with the club, but joined Real Madrid before this summer's Club Cup.

However, unlike Arnold, the 25-year-old French international has seen a staggering decline since the start of the season - prompting coach Slott to introduce England international Guy as a priority for signings, and like Newcastle striker Isaac, he has become two players the club hopes to introduce before closing the window this summer.

Liverpool conceded two goals in each of the first two Premier League games of the season - Connant's performance against Bournemouth and Newcastle also sounded the alarm for the Liverpool coaching staff, including Slott.

The Mirror learned that Liverpool will step up efforts to ensure the joining of Isaac and Guy in the next 24 hours - the Crystal Palace captain also refused to sign a new contract because he has less than 12 months left on his current contract. Liverpool don't want to pay more than £30m for the 25-year-old.
