According to the Spanish media grada3, Real Madrid's central defender target Conat is close to renewing his contract with Liverpool, and they turn their attention to Crystal Palace captain Gee.

Real Madrid has encountered some problems in planning for next season, and as Rudiger and Alaba are about to leave the team - both contracts will expire after 2027, the club's management must take action in advance. Florentino has listed some potential targets, the hottest candidate is Conate. However, the French defender may stay at his current club, Liverpool.

According to French Les de France, Connate is close to renewing his contract with Liverpool as his contract expires next summer. We have mentioned earlier that the people around Conat are open to joining Real Madrid. However, in recent days, negotiations between Conat and Liverpool have made positive progress. Anfield believes that Connate will stay in the team and continue to be a key pillar in Slott's defensive system.

If this news is confirmed, Alonso will lose an important transfer target. With his strength, pace and air superiority, Connat Fu can support a front-press line, while Heysen can provide a clear route to the goal. In Alonso's system, whether it's a 4-4-2 or a 4-3-3 formation, they are complementary roles: Conat provides structural security and confrontation, while Heysen accelerates the offense and defense transition and provides creative solutions for first passes.

If Connate finally chooses to renew his contract with Liverpool, Real Madrid has another ace: Guy. The English central defender became a key player at Crystal Palace last season, and the latter was also a big surprise in the Premier League. He nearly moved to Liverpool for about €40 million this summer, but the deal was stopped because Crystal Palace failed to find a suitable replacement. This makes his future uncertain, and now Real Madrid is paying close attention to him.

Like Konath, Guy's contract will expire this summer, and he can transfer freely while paying an acceptable signing fee. Wearing a white jersey would be a big leap in his career for him, especially for the club, which offers a different way: bringing in a young player with huge growth potential without the need to take the pressure of the main position immediately.
