RB Leipzig’s sporting director speaks out following Konate to Liverpool transfer talks

  RB Leipzig sporting director Markus Krosch has spoken out on Ibrahima Konate to Liverpool transfer talks. Yesterday, the Athletic reported that the Reds are working to finalize a deal for Konate. The centre-back, whose contract with the Bundesliga side expires in 2023, has made 15 appearances so far this season and has scored one goal. "I can’t say anything on that topic. I think that this is not an option for Ibu," Krosche told Stats Perform News. "He has a long contract with us and he knows what we mean to him and what he means to us. "He was unlucky last year as he had a longer injury but this year he is in a good way and he is an extremely important player that has a lot of potential. "We want to help him to further develop, and we play internationally, have a very good team, so I don’t see a reason for him to leave us."   source - Metro / Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
