Arsenal also raided United for the signings of Gibraltar international midfielder James Scanlon and right-back Habeeb Ogunneye during the recent summer transfer window.
A highly-rated winger who can also operate centrally in attack, Konde has been at Liverpool since joining their U9s setup back in 2018.
He appeared six times for the club’s U18s last season under head coach Simon Wiles, registering one assist, with BBC Sport reporting among his strengths “blistering pace and excellent close control”.
Liverpool are due compensation for Konde under current transfer rules, which could reportedly eventually reach seven figures, with a tribunal only required if the two clubs are unable to reach an agreement.
