Ask for a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds! The iron guards contract renewal negotiations are deadlocked. What should Liverpool do?

Kunsa is about to join Leverkusen. After the issue of Connate's contract renewal has reached a deadlock, although Liverpool intends to acquire Guy, the staffing allocation at the central defender position still needs to be strengthened. According to British media reports, Connate hopes to get a new contract with a weekly salary of about 200,000 pounds. What should Liverpool do?

In the just-passed 2024-25 season, Connert played for Liverpool in 42 games, scoring 2 goals and sending 2 assists, including 31 Premier League games, helping Liverpool win the Premier League championship trophy 4 rounds ahead of schedule. In Slot's first season coaching Liverpool, Connate became the best partner of captain Van Dijk, and the two-man mid-lane defense line made it difficult for Premier League powerhouses to overcome.

Since joining Liverpool for 40 million euros in the summer of 2021, Connate has played his best season in form and his healthiest season. In the German market, after helping Liverpool win the Premier League championship, Connate's personal value rose to 60 million euros. Perhaps because of this, Connate was confident and offered a weekly salary of 200,000 pounds in the contract renewal negotiations.

For Liverpool, Conat's asking price is enough to be called "a big opening for the Lions". Among the current Liverpool players, Salah, with the highest weekly salary, is 400,000 pounds, Van Dijk ranked second with 350,000 pounds, and Wilz, who just joined for 136 million euros, only 200,000 pounds, and players such as McAllister, Heraffenberg, Alisson, etc. have a weekly salary of only 150,000 pounds. So, Liverpool obviously won't satisfy Conat.

However, since Connate's contract with Liverpool is only one year away, if the contract extension negotiations are deadlocked, Liverpool may be forced to sell it this summer to avoid repeating Arnold's free departure. At present, many teams such as Real Madrid, Bayern, Paris Saint-Germain and Riyadh Crescent are paying attention to Conat, among which Real Madrid has released signs of sign-free through the media many times.

Personally, I believe that Liverpool must make a quick decision on the issue of Connaught. Either renew the contract or sell him this summer and try to buy a new central defender in the transfer market. In the transfer market, in addition to Guy, Liverpool also has the potential Ajax young player Harto.
