Liverpool Provide Update on Ibrahima Konate's Fitness
Liverpool are concerned about the fitness of centre-back Ibrahima Konate, who returned early from international duty with France.
Konate was substituted after 10 minutes in the second half of Liverpool's defeat to Chelsea and, despite being initially deemed fit for France, has since withdrawn from the national team.
- Konate returned to Liverpool on Saturday
- His fitness is a concern ahead of the match against Manchester United
- Liverpool have only two natural centre-back options if Konate is unfit
Maybe we should rest him anyway?
Konate's injury comes at a time when he is struggling for form, making his recovery an important topic for Liverpool.
