Real Madrid make long-awaited decision; Liverpool forced to act
Liverpool's centre-back headache
Liverpool wanted Schlotterbeck back at the end of 2025 and almost certainly still have him on their shortlist for the summer. The German's contract expires in 2027, with Dortmund essentially forced into selling him before that.
Now, if Real Madrid are to sign Schlotterbeck, Liverpool must look elsewhere. But that could also simply be at home - Ibrahima Konate, after all, is out of contract this summer.
But his options are drying up. Real Madrid won't sign him, it seems, while Bayern Munich have re-signed Dayot Upamecano. Marc Guehi's move to Manchester City rules them out, too.
