Liverpool star Konate will become the most hated Liverpool player after he signed a contract of five years with shocking Club this morning. Why did Arne Slot let him leave? 😱😱
Ibrahima Konaté’s position at Liverpool is becoming increasingly uncertain amid reports that manager Arne Slot has major reservations about the defender.
Konaté, who was signed from RB Leipzig for £36 million three years ago, was initially viewed as the heir to Virgil Van Dijk. However, his stint at Anfield has not unfolded as expected.
The French defender has only featured in half of Liverpool’s Premier League matches over the past two seasons and has yet to solidify his status as Jurgen Klopp’s first-choice centre-back.
Now, Slot is reportedly concerned about Konaté, particularly due to his injury record and inconsistent performances both during matches and in training sessions.
According to a report by Football Insider, Slot “isn’t keen” on the 25-year-old, casting doubt over his long-term prospects at the club.
While a transfer may not be on the horizon this summer, Konaté could see his playing time significantly decrease.
With just two years left on his current deal, the next season could be pivotal in shaping his future at Liverpool.
