Ibrahima Konate deal could lead to three more major transfers
Liverpool got their first piece of summer business done in rapid fashion this week when they announced the arrival of Ibrahima Konate.
The Frenchman will join the Reds from RB Leipzig on July 1 after Liverpool met his £36m release clause.
It was a deal done without a hiccup, and helped by Liverpool's strong relationship with Konate's representatives, the London-based Stellar Agency, founded by Jonathan Barnett.
A deeper look through Stellar's client list shows how that simpatico relationship could be explored further.
Other names that have been linked with the Reds also feature on Stellar's client list, most notably that of 18-year-old Eduardo Camavinga and Jeremy Doku, 19, both at Rennes. Another Stellar client to have been linked with an Anfield switch is 18-year-old Icelandic starlet Isak Bergmann Johannesson at Swedish side IFK Norrkoping.
