Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate has confirmed he will miss the start of the new Premier League season after sustaining an injury during Sunday's 3-0 defeat against Ligue 1 outfit Strasbourg.
The Frenchman fell to the ground twice in quick succession during the early stages of the second half and was subsequently substituted by manager Jurgen Klopp, before heading straight down the tunnel. Now the 23-year-old has taken to social media to reveal that he will not be fit for selection for "some time" following the injury.
"Unfortunately, I have to spend some time off the pitch but it won’t be too long," wrote Konate on his Instagram page on Thursday evening.
