Impact Konate has received a further update Monday, with his manager confirming he would miss time, likely around three to four weeks. That said, he should return within the month, hopefully not missing much time as he is a regular starter. His absence will force a change, with Joe Gomez or Jarell Quansah likely to serve in his spot.

Impact Konate is set for a spell on the sidelines, as he will now miss around a month to a month and a half due to his foot issues. The club has given little more on the situation, with the defender likely to start his recovery process in the coming days. He will eye a return around mid-January, hopefully being available to face Nottingham on Jan. 14. He is a regular starer, so expect Joe Gomez and Jarell Quansah to see more time while he is out.

Impact Konate has still not been diagnosed with an injury after limping off the field Wednesday, as he is still waiting on further testing. The club is still holding out that he only has minor issues, as this would be a major loss if he misses time. He has started in 16 of his 17 appearances this season, so if he misses out, expect Joe Gomez or Jarell Quansah to take his spot if he misses time.

Limps off Konate limped off at full time after Wednesday's 2-0 win over Real Madrid.

Impact Konate went down after the final whistle and had to be helped off the pitch. It's not clear what the exact injury is for the defender but it's certainly a concern. Joe Gomez would come into the starting XI if Konate misses Sunday's clash with Manchester City.

Starting against Leverkusen Konate (arm) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's clash with Leverkusen.

Impact Konate came off in major pain during a 2-1 win over Brighton at the weekend, but evidently it was a minor concern. The defender is now back in the starting XI, and should be a rock solid partner for Virgil van Dijk in the back line. Konate has truly established himself as the top choice when fit.

Impact Konate left Saturday's win over Brighton due to an injury, but the center-back will be available for Tuesday's marquee matchup against the reigning Bundesliga champions. If deemed healthy enough, Konate should start at center-back, as he's been in the XI in all but one of his 13 appearances this season between the Premier League and the Champions League.

Impact Konate is set to receive further scans and testing on the knock he received Saturday to reveal the true extent of his problems. The club will hope for the best, as he is a major player to the club, only missing one start all season. Joe Gomez replaced him and will likely continue in his spot if he misses more time, with Jarell Quansah also being an option.

Off at half Konate was forced off the field due to injury in the 46th minute of Saturday's match against Brighton.

Impact Konate looks to have been feeling some discomfort in the first half of Saturday's tilt, leading to his eventual substitution following halftime. That said, the club should give more on his situation after the match, with the whole club looking for only minor issues. He is a regular starter so this could be a significant loss, with Joe Gomez filling his spot Saturday.

First Premier League goal Konate scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Wolverhampton. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 63rd minute.

Impact Konate rose above the pack just before halftime Saturday to head home a corner and net his first ever Premier League goal. The goal opened the scoring for Liverpool, and they would go on to defeat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2 - 1. In addition to his goal, the veteran center back made two interceptions, one clearance and one block. After coming off the bench during Liverpool's first Premier League match of the season, Konate has now started in six successive matches (all competitions).

Impact Konate was credited with the first assist of the match since one of his trademark long balls was controlled by Luis Diaz, and while the Colombian found the back of the net with a shot into the open goal, it's worth noting that Kepa Arrizabalaga had significant responsibility in the outcome of the play -- his rushing out of the box left a lot to be desired and facilitated Diaz's goal. Konate should continue to earn most of his value through defensive stats, though, and not via attacking sequences.

First goal of the season in win Konate scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Tuesday's 3-1 victory over AC Milan. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 80th minute.

Impact Konate scored the first goal for Liverpool as they sparked their comeback with his 23rd-minute goal. He found space in the box and headed home Trent Alexander-Arnold'sfree-kick delivery. This was only his fourth shot and second shot on target of the season.

Falls out of favor Konate made 22 appearances (17 starts) during the Premier League.

Impact Konate was the presumptive starter, especially once Joel Matip went down for the season with a knee injury. While Konate did see plenty of minutes he never made the starting job his own as Jarell Quansah surprisingly took over a partnership with Virgil van Dijk. The talent is clearly there for Konate, it's just a matter of earning the starting job.

Goes 90 with France Konate (groin) started and went the full 90 in Tuesday's friendly with France against Chile.

Impact Konate was on the bench last week and was healthy enough to go 90 Tuesday, so he should be a factor to start for Liverpool again after the break. Jarell Quansah has stepped into more time due to Konate's inability to stay healthy and it wouldn't be surprising to see him start again out of the break to give Konate a bit more rest coming off this start.

Not likely to face Man United Konate (groin) is not expected to be available to face Manchester United in the FA Cup quarterfinals on Sunday, manager Jurgen Klopp told media during Friday's pre-match press conf...

Impact Konate was expected to be available for this clash just before the international break. However, his recovery process hasn't gone as expected, and while he hasn't been ultimately ruled out, all signs point to him being sidelined once again. Konate has missed Liverpool's last two games in all competitions, and if he's ruled out once again, then Jarell Quansah and Joe Gomez could be in line for more playing time.

Impact Konate was held out for the club's pivotal match against Manchester City on Sunday due to a groin issue after receiving scans on the injury ahead of the contest. However, he appears to only be carrying a minor problem, as he is now set to return this weekend. He will now look to get in training ahead of the match, confirming his status as available for the FA Cup tilt. If this is the case, he will hope to earn the start in his return, having started in 19 of his 24 contests this season when available.
