Liverpool have no intention of selling France defender Ibrahima Konate, 26, in this transfer window, despite working on moves for two centre-backs to strengthen their squad. (Mail)
Cleaning up the Scots since the 13th century
I wonder, Guehi may come straight into the 11. I wonder how Koante will feel about that? I personally think we will let him leave if he wants for nothing.He'll obviously be offered a new contract.. Then its up to him. But the club is willing to let him go for nothing...

Worth noting that we are into the 25/26 season, meaning that without an extension, it will be the second-last year of Joe Gomez being at Liverpool.
Whilst I am not enormously confident of Konaté extending (Isak's arrival could swing this, ambition and all that?) or presuming that Guehi and Leoni both come, you have to say that we would have good depth.
Van Dijk
Konaté
Guehi (isn't 26 until next Summer!)
Leoni
- would look better than -
Van Dijk
Konaté
Gomez
Quansah
Indeed, if someone had offered a swap deal with Quansah going one way and Guehi the other, I think many would have taken it - and in terms of approximate rumoured fee (Ł35m) we could perhaps land on that yet.
Probably right that we're prepared for Konate to run down his contract.
If we do land Guehi and Leoni (which would be superb) we'd be in a much stronger position and then Gomez would be more likely to cover fullback and Tsimikas will be sold.
Related to Pizzuti…?
Don’t get me wrong I love the guy - but he is pointless if never played. His top level fitness is clearly miles off it now for that reason.
He was played clean through v Preston and he just couldn’t run, he staggered a few paces til he was caught by the defender. I thought then he looks done at top level to me. I wonder if other clubs were thinking the same as absolutely no one had made an offer, despite how cheap he would be
