Nets rare goal Konate scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 4-1 win over Newcastle United.

Impact Konate was back in the squad after two weeks away from the team due to the passing of his father, and he returned with a goal. It was an emotional moment for the center-back, who had a brilliant match on the whole. Konate should be a big part of the starting XI now that he's back with the squad.

Impact Konate missed the last three games due to personal reasons but the Frenchman is expected to train on Friday and will be an option for Saturday's clash against the Mapgies. Konate has been an undisputed starter for Liverpool this season and should regain that role alongside Virgil van Dijk on Saturday. The center-back contributed 31 tackles, 12 interceptions and 129 clearances in 22 Premier League appearances this season to help the reds secure five clean sheets.

Impact Konate missed the last three games following his father's passing, but the staff hopes and expects him to be back available for Saturday's clash against Newcastle United. The Frenchman has been an undisputed starter in the backline for Liverpool and will likely start in the backline if deemed ready for the game. If he has to miss another game and Joe Gomez (undisclosed) remains out as well, Ryan Gravenberch would have to play out of position again and start alongside Virgil van Dijk in central defense.

Impact Konate is still with his family and in France following the passing of his father, with the club giving him plenty of time to recover from the tragic situation. This will leave him questionable heading into Saturday's match against Newcastle, needing to return and train in the next few days, although he will not be rushed.

Not in team sheet Konate (personal) is out for Saturday's match against Bournemouth.

Impact Konate is still not with his club after some personal issues that forced him to return to France, yet to be back in Liverpool after the trip home. That said, he is likely to eye a return in the next week as they head into another UCL matchday, taking back his starting spot from Joe Gomez once fit.

Impact Konate lost his father in recent days and missed the Champions League clash against Marseille on Wednesday for that reason. The center-back announced that a tribute will be paid to his father on Friday at noon in France, which suggests he will likely miss Saturday's clash against Bournemouth as well. Konate has been an undisputed starter in the backline for Liverpool, and his probable absence will force a change in the starting XI, with Joe Gomez likely starting again in his place.

Misses squad list Konate (personal) is not in the squad list for Wednesday's match against Marseille.

Impact Konate is not with his club following his return to France for a family matter, unable to play despite the club traveling to France to face Marseille. This is a major loss for the club, with the defender only missing one start all season, this coming in an FA Cup match. That said, a change will be made, with Joe Gomez a likely replacement until Konate is fit again.

Not spotted in team training Konate (personal) wasn't spotted training with the team on Tuesday since he is currently in France due to family reasons, according to James Pearce from The Athletic.

Impact Konate is currently in France due to family reasons and is not training with the squad one day ahead of Wednesday's Champions League clash against Marseille. That said, since the game is taking place at the Velodrome in Marseille, Konate could still link up with the team during the day on Wednesday. If the center-back ultimately has to miss the clash, Joe Gomez will likely be the main option to replace him in central defense against the Olympians.

Busy defensively Konate generated seven clearances and one interception in Thursday's 0-0 draw against Arsenal. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 93rd minute.

Impact Konate had everything to do behind the ball throughout Thursday's scoreless draw, shutting down wave-after-wave of Arsenal attacks, especially in the first half. Konate has finally come into form after an awful start to the season, and seems set to partner Virgil van Dijk as long as both stay fit in the back half of the season.
