Konate is seemingly convinced that everybody knows where the 25-year-old will be playing next season.
"In all honesty do you really think he’s going to come to Liverpool?," Konate told CANAL+.
"We don't think about him, we all know where he's going to go."
Meanwhile, Reds manager Jurgen Klopp also weighed in on the Mbappe transfer saga which will come to an end in the next transfer window.
"Obviously, I’m not involved in that, but I can tell you I’d be surprised if all the top clubs were [in for him]," Klopp added.
“The top clubs I know, for most of them, it will be tricky - wages, signing-on fee."
