Overview
- Konaté conceded a penalty with a sliding challenge on Wilfried Gnonto as Liverpool let a 2-0 lead slip in a 3-3 draw at Leeds.
- Arne Slot said the centre‑back has been "a bit too much at the crime scene," highlighting repeated involvement in goals conceded.
- Slot questioned VAR consistency over the Leeds decision after previously feeling similar incidents were not reviewed in Liverpool's games.
- Konaté’s season has featured multiple high‑profile errors and seven substitutions, yet he continues to start due to thin centre‑back depth.
- Contract uncertainty persists with Real Madrid reported to have stepped back, Bayern Munich and PSG linked, and a £35m move for Marc Guéhi previously collapsing.
