"No, no. I don't think"- Ibrahima Konate makes strong claim over Virgil van Dijk

Ibrahima Konate thinks he has not earned the right to be compared to Virgil van Dijk but is hopeful of becoming one of the world's best in this position. The Frenchman played in the Reds' previous two outings, helping the team achieve comfortable wins against Crystal Palace and Norwich City. He faces a battle on his hands to displace one of Van Dijk and Joel Matip, who have both battled back from long-term injuries to regain their starting spots in Jurgen Klopp's side. When asked about his thoughts on comparisons that have been made between himself and Van Dijk, Konate said:
"No, no. I don't think I can compare with Virgil because he showed to the world that he is the best defender.   "Me, no. I hope with time, I can show this."
